Ipad keeps rebooting after batteryreplaement

Just finished putting in the new battery with the iFixit kit. Followed the instructions very very carefully. Took about5 hours since I went really slow. ran battery down to 10 percent and fully recharged as instructed for battery calibration. Unit worked flawlessly all day today. When I got home I put it on the charger again and was working on it when it randomly rebooted. I noticed the battery reported 1 percent. I removed the charging cable and now the battery reports 46 percent. I tried resetting the ipad. It would not stay on long enough for me to restore a backup from iCloud so I went ahead and reset it as a new iPad. That took forever. I’ve tried all the tricks I can find. It is still randomly rebooting and I cant seem to keep it charging for more than 2 minutes. What is the problem? Please help.

The problem may be due to a bad connection between the battery connector on the logic board and the battery itself.

Usually either the screw is missing for the battery connector on the logic board or not tightened enough, for good measure I also press a bit against the battery connector and around it just in case.
