Why won't my screen digitizer function properly

I just installed my new screen to my phone after receiving it and the tools today. When I turn on the phone the screen gives a snowy pixilated response before displaying the motorola logo then the image goes snowy again and becomes unstable.

The touch function works but the display does not remain on. The display seems to function fine when the phone is off and it is just displaying the charge icon that is the only time when the screen display is stable until I try to turn the phone on then the same problem persists. I have tried re-plugging in the digitizer and have tried with the battery unplugged and plugged back in with and without the charger plugged in but to no avail.

Should I try ordering a new screen? :/
