i bought a new screen for my dell inspiron 3542 since then i am not able to control brightness when my laptop is running on battery, but as soon as i plug in the charger the control works perfectly.

i also tried to replace the screen with the old screen over there brightness control works fine.
my old screen has got some dead pixels so can't continue to work over it.

i have updated all the drivers and tried all the solutions given on this forum and other but still issue is there.
 
Solution
Try this...

1. Go into "Control Panel" and then "Power Options".

2. Click the "Change plan settings" link next to which ever plan you are currently using and then click "Change advance power settings".

3. In this new window click "Display" to open up the listings under it.

4. Now locate and click each of the following..."Display brightness", "Dimmed display brightness" and "Enable adaptive brightness".

5. Change each of these to the settings you wish (in this case I would turn off adaptive), then click the "Apply" button and finally the "OK" button.

6. You should be good.
