Default LCD problem

I have a Compaq Evo n1020v. The display is very faint. There is
almost no contrast. You can see it a little better if you have it at
an extreme angle. I'm wondering if the whole display needs replaced
or if it may be an inverter board, or something much less expensive
to replace.

Inverters do go they step up the 12V up to around 1.8KV (1,800V), I
guess it'd be the CCFL (Cold Cathode Flouresecnt Lamps) that require
replacement.

Some info here may help put you in the picture-:
