After Replacing the Screen it won't turn on

Had exactly the same issue. Based on the dfu comment above, I held the power button 3 seconds, then pressed the home button for 10 seconds while continuing to hold the power button, then released the power button while continuing to hold the home button and HAPPY DAYS...it lit right up! Thanks

My Ipad 3 Wifi did the same thing. I had no screen, but if I "shorted" the home button contacts, I heard sound so I knew the system was functioning. I went ahead and removed the logic board and disconnected it from the battery (after disconnecting the top power switch ribbon assembly from it) and left it disconnected from the battery contacts for 30min. Put it back in and reconnected my button harnesses and tada! Screen was back on with my Apple logo.

David - it sounds like you broke the latch on the flex cable connector for the LCD. The part that is actually attached to the logic board, so it may or may not be an easy fix.

I don't think it's feasible to get a good connection for the LCD without keeping the latch in tact. Can it be done? Probably. Should it be done? Nope. I've been able to find a new latch for the iPad 2 previously, but haven't needed one yet for the iPad 3.

It doesn't look like iFixit carries the part, neither do my normal suppliers. I had to browse through Chinese supplier sites until I found someone who carried it last time. I'd suggest you do the same. I looked around, but didn't see anything right away. If you can't find it, leave me a comment and I'll see if I can dig up a link.

Thank you .... I just had a similar problem i removed the battery connection let it set for a minute or 2 it works great ....Thank you so much for posting... the internet is a miracle!!

I have an iPad 4 that I just replaced the digitizer in. The lcd worked perfect. I went to turn it on after replacing it and it wouldn't come on so I thought it was dead. I put the ipad on charge and it made a charging noise. But after leaving it on charge a while it still didn't come on. Please help.i have double checked everything to make sure it was hooked up right and it is nothing is wrong with anything. Also the home button isn't working so don't know how to do a hard reset after that and the computer recognizes it but it has a pass code I can't put it.

MIke, AWESOME! Blog! that worked for me and I've been trying for a week trying to figure out WTF! happen to my iPad...and I have searched through everywhere for an answer and yours is the only one that worked....thank you!

Very helpful. I thought my ipad was dead. After reading this post I blindly put the ipad in dfu mode and restart it and display came back. Many Thanks

I changed my iPad 3 screen after that It won't turn on what can be the problem

You're magic

Help! my iPad 2 was damaged while replacing screen. I severed the connection tape located next to the home button. The # on the little piece of black tape is lots of 2118 & such. Can I get a replacement part for this?!

try a new battery or double check to make sure the battery connection is on properly

I just replaced a battery on iPad Air 2. Everything seemed good. I tested the LCD and battery before i sealed it. I turned off the iPad and disconected the cables and applied the seal when i connected the lcd connectors and sealed in hopes it would turn on, but it didnt. I tried hard reset, i tried taking out the motherboard and putting it back together and i tried to connect it to itunes but no luck so far. When i install the lcd and try to turn on the iPad i can feel the motherboard getting a little warm.

There is no display and the itunes does not recognize it.
