    Hi! I'm a new member here and I am experiencing the dim LCD screen issues with my Inspiron E1405 (14.1" WXGA+ model). I've done my research on this issue and am gonna try to replace the lcd inverter. I looked on ebay and most are selling inverters for the 15" models. I opened up my laptop and jotted down the following info. Can you guys tell me where to find this part or other part numbers that you guys think will be compatible with my laptop? Can I use an inverter that's designed for a 15" LCD screen with a 14.1" screen? Sorry for my ignorance, but this is my first time playing around w/ laptops :)

    LCD inverter specs:

    LJ97-00684A (part # on a stick on the yellow film)
    K02I108.01 LF (part # on a sticker on the yellow film)
    E200012461-02

    U40I008T01 (part # inscribed on the actual inverter board)
    Rev.0 GP
