Display dimming problem Dell notebooks

I am doing some research on a display dimming problem on my DellĀ LatitudeĀ E6430.

Specifically, when using the laptop in a dim/darkĀ environment, the display brightness sometimes varies with a sort of brightness-fluctuation. It can be quite annoying as it is almost like flickering.

Perhaps the most frustrating aspect is that it is hard to replicate so troubleshooting can be difficult! Ā šŸ™
