Xbox One Controller won't turn on.

I recently tore apart my Xbox One Controller to replace the buttons and the front faceplace on the controller. Now that I have put it back together the guide button will not turn on the controller. When I hold down the guide button in a certain spot it turns on, but once I release it shuts off. When I plug it into the console it turns the controller on but the guide button doesn't work. On one controller the vibrator disconnected from one side, could this be relative to the problem?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Try to take it apart again and put everything back. You may have broken or moved something. Put it back to the original configuration and see if it works, if it doesn’t, there could be another issue.

The only button that doesn't work is the guide, which is using the original button.
