You probably intended to test the button value instead of setting it in the "if" statement. And I'm also guessing you meant "val" instead of "prop" to actually set it later.

Then, the selector for the CSS didn't make sense, but I suspect you want to select everything that is is not inside the "apiData" div, so I wrote a selector for that. Finally I added the code to clear the background when you toggle back:

$("#LDbutton").click(function() {
  console.log("1");
  if ($("#LDbutton").val() == "Light off") {
    $("#LDbutton").val("Light on");
    $( ":not(#apiData *)" ).css( "background-color", "black" );
  } else {
    $("#LDbutton").val("Light off");
    /*reverse*/
    $( ":not(#apiData *)" ).css( "background-color", "" );
  }
});
