Could be either the backlight or inverter. Both are pretty difficult even for someone like me that works on Apple laptops professionally and on a daily basis to replace in an ibook. Before you can even remove the screen to change either of these you need to remove the keyboard, bottom case, top case, bottom shield and top shield before you can even un-route any of the cables to remove the screen.
