3D Touch not working with ribbon cables in tact.

I recently had my 3D Touch stop working after a battery replacement. I was told that it was because the cables were ripped. So I ordered and another seal and took apart my phone. The cables looked fine so I reseated them and I booted up my phone and it still wasn’t working. I honestly have no idea what’s wrong. Touch ID and everything else on the display still works fine.

You will need to replace the screen if you want 3D touch to work again.

Why what’s wrong with it?

I literally just took it off replaced the battery and put it back on, I didn’t put any stress on the cables and didn’t put a lot of weight on the connectors.

The ribbon cable for the screen for 3D Touch has gotten damaged somehow, it's usually how they stop working after a battery replacement.

Otherwise it may be pry damage near the screen connectors but I don't think there are components near the screen connectors used for 3D touch.
