Android Central Question

About three days ago, I thought my Galaxy Tab A stopped working. Yesterday, I was messing with the tablet and noticed that there was something on the screen. After using my phone flashlight to view it I realized that my tablet was working just fine, but the brightness was so low that it looks like the screen is off and I can't see a thing without using a flashlight. I figured it was a virus, so I erased the contents (excluding the apps) of my tablet and restarted it. Now, I can't see the screen even with a flashlight. I can hear the system sounds and whatever notifications come through, but I can't see anything. Why is this
happening and how can I fix it?
