Replacing my LCD and Digitizer but screen won't show Apple logo

Hello! I am repairing the LCD and I plugged it in to test it but when I turned on the device, the light on the back and around the LCD turns on bright like normal but the LCD remains black. I can’t see a dim Apple logo. When I press the home button or the power button, it turns on showing me that it booted. I place the old LCD to make sure it isn’t the board and it works normal minus its very colorful lines haha.

That was exactly the problem. I was sold an iPad mini 2 thinking that it was an iPad mini 1. Thank you!

Double check the model of your iPad to the replacement screen because it could be that a iPad mini 1 LCD is being installed into a iPad mini 2 which are incompatible.

E.g the model number printed at the back of the iPad is something like A1XX.
