I bought a iBook G3 Clamshell from craigslist for $30 from a guy who said he brought it out and turned it on for a while and after some time (forget how long) he said the screen turned just white and it never displayed normal again. The iBook does just display a white screen, so now I need to know how to repair it. I’ve looked all over but it seems no one else has this issue. I opened it up and it appears the screen cable is plugged in. I haven’t turned it on in a while because I’ve kinda given up hope that i’ll be able to fix it. But I’ve been thinking about it recently and kinda wanna fix it (even with my very very limited to no soldering skills). Anyone know what’s wrong

TL;DR: My iBook G3 only displays white screen, previous owner says he turned it on for a while then screen turned white. Need help repairing it.
