While using the Lenovo the screen went from very bright to very dim (hardly readable without external light source).

I have tried: Adjusting brightness via keyboard, rolling back drivers for both intel and nvidia, updating drivers, adjusting display adapters, and monitors.

I also tried to hook up the laptop to a TV and another laptop as an external monitor through HDMI but neither recognized the Lenovo.

Would replacing the screen resolve this issue?
I read it could be a fuse as well?

Thoughts or ideas?

Thanks!
