Hello,

I would recommend an original camera as they tend to always work. You can find these on eBay and ifixit but if you are searching on eBay put in a genuine Apple iPhone 7 plus camera. The best ones that I use are used but high-quality new parts are available on ifixit. Here is the link: iPhone 7 Plus Dual Rear Camera

If an original part doesn't work then this may be a motherboard problem. Also, have a look at the connectors and the connections you are making to the board=. Sometimes they can be a bit off and make a problem. Hope that helped
