Hp pavilion laptop dark screen issue

[Zenro]

My gaming laptop has been a dark screen for a few months and the people at hp support rarely respond and when they  do they don’t know how to help because every time they control my computer they don’t listen to me when i keep saying they cant fix the issue by just messing with the brightness because I have tried. The laptop works just fine, the only issue is I can’t see anything on the screen itself but, when I’m viewing it off of an hdmi cable the brightness is clearly full as seen on my tv, but anytime I want to use it on its own I can’t because I only get a really dark screen on it does anyone know a solution
