So the LCD was just laying on the contacts? No adhesive?

That is how they do it on some smaller lcd's The connection is held by "force".
For a dim LCD, I would try a NEW battery first thing.

Battery is new, pigtail is new(broken and corosion and oxidization way up into the wire on the old one).... with the new pigtail and battery the lcd stays on now and doesnt act spurattic, just dim
