MacBook won't power on after LCD replacement

After replacing the LCD screen on my Macbook, it will not power on through the keyboard. It was woking fine before. I managed to turn the MacBook on through the logic board and it booted up fine. LCD looks great. Any suggestions on getting this to power on through the keyboard?

thanks

This happened to me once and I ended up having to replace the top-case ribbon cable. You have to really be careful when removing it from the logic board; I always keep a butcher's knife handy to pry on the male fitting just encase it's a tight fit.
