    Problems with laptop brightness after changing screens

    This is the serial number of the screen ltn156ar16-003. it seems to be LED :) So, it could be a backlight fuse, but how can that explain the fact that the display is partially lit, are there more fuses or can a fuse be half-blown :) ?

    Problems with laptop brightness after changing screens

    Hi, I've stepped on my laptop by mistake and I broke the screen. Luckily I had another semi-working laptop that I bought for spare parts and got the screen from it. It's working perfectly on that one. When I transplant it onto the "good" laptop it works, but is quite dim. I've tried everything...
