Title:

Why won't my iPod turn on?

Text:

i recently replaced my digitizer and touch screen assembly, only to find out i had a faulty digitizer. An hour ago, i replaced it again, but when i plugged in the lcd cable to test the digitizer i couldn't get the ipod to turn on at all. i plugged it into my computer to see if it was dead, but it won't even recognize that my ipod is plugged in?

i've checked the power/volume cable and everything looks fine, but i'm not entirely sure what i'm looking for.

When checking my power cable, what exactly should i be looking for?

also, if its not the power cable, which i don't think it is, what else could be wrong? could i have somehow short circuited it? any help would be greatly appreciated.

iPod Touch 4th Generation
