    I would suspect a connector problem. However, is there any trace of the displayed data? A backlight problem can give you a black screen (but if you look hard the displayed data are there) but a backlight problem shouldn't cause the screen to go white.

    Probably your lcd cable. It goes from the back of your lcdpanel through the left hinge and into a connector on the mainboard
