Hi @soufianemoussa

You are correct, a 2:7 code indicates an LCD failure but the Dell Reference guide¹ also says to flash the BIOS to the latest Revision state².

¹In the Reference guide, scroll down click on either Diagnostic LEDs for the Inspiron Laptops (2020 to Present) > Diagnostic LED indicators or Diagnostic LEDs for the Inspiron laptop series (2016 to 2020) > Diagnostic LED indicators to view the codes. I mentioned both as I think your model is from 2020 but when in that year I don't know, but both tables say the same thing for a 2:7 code.

The latest revision is marked as critical and was released on 12th July 2023. Maybe worth checking what revision the BIOS is in your laptop.

²In the Driver support page, scroll down and click on Drivers and then Download type > BIOS. Be patient as for some reason it takes a few minutes for you to be able to select this. I don't know why perhaps Dell is having a problem, but it does work eventually.
