No display after screen replacement

My iPad had a cracked screen with severe LCD damage where all could be seen is lots of colored lines. I got a Apple Original screen to replace it and when I installed the new screen and hit the power button all I get is the backlight (no image just a black dim screen) for about 3-5 seconds and then it turns off. I transferred my home button to the new screen and it works fine as I am able to put the device in dfu mode with it and force restart. when plugged into my Mac it doesn't show up in finder until I put it in recovery mode or dfu mode. when restoring it gives me an error 4013. when I put the damaged display back on, it restores without a problem and works as it should other than the damaged LCD. I don't see why the new screen isn't working. Any help is appreciated!

You have purchased a faulty aftermarket screen. Return it for a refund and purchase one from a reputable supplier.

Apple does not sell replacement screens. Unless it was pulled from another iPad it will be aftermarket.

Yep I figured that which is unfortunate. It was pulled from another iPad but it must have been faulty. I got my return label and am getting a full refund and I’ll buy another from a different source. I will see if the issue persists when I get another screen which It shouldn’t as I will most likely buy it from ifixit. I was trying to avoid the $200 for a new screen but if that’s what it needs that’s what I’ll do.

if you change the LCD without disconnecting the battery then might be light-related issues check it correctly.

I made sure I had a pick under the battery connector the whole repair. I am returning the screen because I think the unit I got is defective
