The screen on my X3 doesn't light up.

The touch screen on my X3 doesn't light up anymore.
It's still seems to work just fine but it is almost impossible to read.
I was wondering what kind of repair this is. Is it simply replacing a light module.
Or do I have to replace the whole LCD.
I haven't been able to find a compatible part from any repair sites. I can't even find any mention of this problem in the forums.
I don't know if it's a minor fix or a major expense.

try to change your brightness and /or power saving settings.if you don't get a reaction from ax You might have to reflash, hard reset, to tell if it's a hardware/software issue, do a backup and try it If this don't help you can get the display replaced but it costs. Search replace screen there are a few threads here that even tell you where to go for tutes to do it yourself.
