MacBook doesn't start after battery replacement

Hello,

In my MacBook A1708 I replaced battery. After that MacBook doesn't start. Nevermind if charger is plugged or unplugged.

If I unplugged flex battery connector - MacBook starts with plugged charger. Do you have some ideas what gone wrong?

I would suspect the cable or the connectors have been damaged somehow so you have a short. Otherwise the battery maybe defective.
