I remember fixing one for a friend by replacing this part but I can't remember the specifics right now. Try to Google "dim display on BC-780XLT" or something along those lines and see what you find. It might not be the display at all but rather the driver. If I can scrounge up the information, that is assuming I saved it, I will post it latter. -- Ken Sprouse / WA3FKG John 3:16 http://wa3fkg.blogspot.com You meet the nicest people at a TEA Party.
