The time on my Lock Screen is very faded- the same problem others reported 3-7 months ago. iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16.4.1. I've done nothing in Settings, so that is not the cause. I've tried turning the phone off and on- no change. I am not using Dark Mode. When I did try to increase the display brightness there was no effect on the Lock Screen.

That is not the issue. “Dim Lock Screen” was never enabled. The problem still exists with this function disabled.
I made no Settings changes during the time between when the Lock Screen clock was normal and now, that it is faded out.
If you are referring to a Faded Lock Screen Clock then...
The pic below is self-explanatory
