How does the PCB regulate the dimming of solar energy light?

I often design dimmable light, but never handle that power by solar energy. Could you please tell how to realize it. I think now we need to follow the environmental-friendly trend and launch some green electric products.

How do you test a washing machine control board?

Washing machine does not work. Since it just bought one years ago, the components in it is not old, I think. So I want to check it from its PCB. Any tips on this?
