Have you checked it's not some kind of dimmer feature? One of mine has bright, dim and off as options.
Airhead-
Definitely "wear and tear" over dimmer feature. The display until recently used to work fine. Sharp and bright. Now I'm lucky to start off with something "dimmed" then after a few minutes all backlighting is gone and it remains dark. :(
I haven't contacted any specialist service shops about it yet but I'd like it to work (ideally).

My CD player's LCD display is rather faint suddenly while the other 2 units are fine. It actually looks worse IRL than on the picture. I opened the box up and there was hardly any dust and looked all nice and clean.
Am I likely to get this fixed cheaply?
I have no idea if a dodgy unit could be used as "screen donor" for mine. Is it a big job to swap it out? (most likely not to be done by myself, just to clarify).
