My screen is so dark, that I see only the icons by using a flashlight!

When my mother started her cell phone this morning, the screen came very dark and I can hardly do anything on the screen.  I tested with different settings and colors and brightness change, but not physically, I can't see anything without using a flashlight.  It's as if the backlight went dim or something.

She uses a Dell Inspiron with Windows Vista.  I'm not aware of any other characteristic that is not my computer.    Please do not hesitate to ask questions and I will do my best to answer or find the answers.

Please help make my life easier and help me fix his computer.

I think that you have diagnosed the problem yourself. It's the backlight or the inverter failed. You can check if the cables are loose and you will need to make to a repair shop to get the extract. The only practical way to check is to Exchange in well known components until the problem is located.

Here is part of a Dell Inspiron manual that shows the wiring:
