Home button doesn't work after changing display assembly on my iPhone

After changing the display assembly on my iPhone 6S, my HOME button doesn't work anymore. The phone gave me an alternate way to access my home screen. I replaced the HOME screen button assembly, but it still won't recognize that the HOME button replacement. Any suggestions out there?

I'd say you received a faulty screen/flex connector cable that is integrated into the backlight. I got one that did the same to me.

Have you tried the original screen again with the home button? See if that works. If not, there is a possibility that the home button flex was damaged in the process.

Good luck and keep us posted!

the home screen button was working with the old display assembly, but unfortunate for me, I sent it back to iFixit to recycle the old screen. I'm sure you're possibly correct with your trouble shooting solution....thanks anyway!
