Screen dims when touching the body

Hi,


A late 2011 15” MBP is functioning normally, but whenever the chassis is touched, the backlight dims slightly! Any idea what could cause such an issue?

The AMD GPU has failed already on this model, we’ve implemented DosDudes hack to disable it. (http://dosdude1.com/gpudisable/)
