Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug before opening the control panel. Avoid touching live circuits.
- Step 1 – Check power source: Try a different outlet to rule out low line voltage.
- Step 2 – Observe pattern: Note whether dimming occurs only at high temperatures or randomly. Heat-related dimming suggests board overheating.
- Step 3 – Ventilation: Ensure the unit has adequate airflow around it to prevent control board overheating.
- Step 4 – Internal inspection (advanced): Remove the control panel and inspect the display connector and surrounding components for discoloration or loose connections.
- Step 5 – Replace display or board: If the display remains dim or flickers despite stable power, the display module or control board may need replacement.
