In Raspberry Pi 3B/3B+, The backlight brightness can be controlled by following the command:

gpio -g pwm 18 1024
gpio -g mode 18 pwm 
gpio pwmc 1000
gpio -g pwm 18 X

(The value of X should be between 0 and 1024)


In Raspberry Pi 4B, you need to update the wiringPi GPIO library (Raspberry Pi needs to connect to the Internet):

cd /tmp
wget https://project-downloads.drogon.net/wiringpi-latest.deb
sudo dpkg -i -B wiringpi-latest.deb

Execute the following command to control the backlight brightness:

gpio -g pwm 18 1024
gpio -g mode 18 pwm 
gpio pwmc 1000
gpio -g pwm 18 X

(The value of X should be between 0 and 1024)
