Changed Digitizer and Wifi and now iPad loses power intermittently

I damaged my wifi cable while trying to change the digitizer so I replaced that as well. Everything went off without a hitch...or so I thought. After the repair I charged the batteries to 100 percent. while using the iPad I gently set it down on the table and I lost power. I had to hit the power button to reboot the iPad. The unit always restarts, and works fine as long as it's not moved abruptly. Any mild bumps or jolts causes power loss. Any ideas?! Did I damage the power cable unknowingly? Did I not reassemble something correctly? Any suggestions where to begin Trouble shooting. Thanks!

Sounds like you did connect the LCD securely, take a look at the connector.

Eman05,

You were on the right track. The LCD screen was connected securely, but the center screw on the logic board was loose. Tightening all the screws on logic board fixed the problem. But I back tracked from the LCD per your suggestion and that is how I found the issue. Thanks.
