IPad 2 Screen is black but the roatation is visible

My sister's IPad 2 seems to be doing a weird glitch where when she turns on her IPad, the screen has a little bit of light, indicating the the screen is on, but it's black. However, when we rotate the IPad screen, we can see the lock screen wallpaper while it's rotating but every time it rotates to black. We tried resetting and when we do so, the Apple logo is clear on the middle of the screen, as if the screen isn't even broken. We was wondering if there were any other fixes we could try.

That's an odd problem...

I would start by doing a hard reset (home & power button for 10 secs) and then a full DFU Restore if that doesn't help. Make sure to backup your device first (if it is already trusted on iTunes, it will be easy).

Once those "software" solutions have been tried, if you still have the problem, it is a hardware issue and possibly a logic board issue. At that point, you will want to have it looked at by an experienced tech.
