You need to replace the inverter in the lid where the LCD is.
It sits just below the LCD panel and has 2 connectors, one at each end.

This is best left to a laptop repair centre due to the fragile outer bezel that needs to be popped off to gain access to it. They snap very easily with a small amount of force.
