Lenovo Flex 2 - Display randomly dims

[Breanna Murrie]

I've turned off auto adjust under the display settings, but the display still keeps randomly dimming and then going bright again every couple of minutes. It's driving me insane!

Sounds like your display is dimming due to settings under power options, so go to control panel,power options, select your highlighted power plan, then advance settings, look for display in list click and adjust to fix. It usually more than one option.
Although your Lenovo might have its own power management software if so check its settings.

The only setting I can find is the Adaptive Brightness (under power options, advanced settings, display). Any idea where to look for other settings?

I can't do Options 1 and 2 for some reason. Under PC and devices>Power and sleep, I don't have an option for auto brightness. Only an option to change the time the display stays on. Same issue with the Intel graphics card setting...I don't have the power saving option. :-(

Try find a program on your laptop a program called Lenovo Energy Management check settings.
Example below but for another Lenovo.

Okay, I ended up changing the Dim brightness to 100% and it seems to be a workaround. Thanks for all your help!!

Knew it would work in the end. Amazing that quite a few issues are caused by power management settings.

Looks like the problem didn't go away!! (I just haven't had a chance to come back on here and post again) Any other ideas??

Maybe this is a dumb question but I cannot find the 'battery touch sensitive' button....
