dsi won't power on after teardown

hi, i've just replaced the shell on my dsi and now it won't turn on. it seems to charge (charging light comes on), but when i press the power button the blue power light comes on for a second then the dsi turns off. both screens also faintly flash for a second. i've tried reseating all my ribbon cables and powering it on without the battery but that didn't help :( is there anything i can do or is it shot?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

I’d check the cables for the LCDs. If the ribbon cable for those is damaged, or not seated correctly then the light will flash blue and the screens will flash. Please let us know what you find out. Good Luck
