Display not turning on after ram upgrade

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hello. I recently opened up my iMac 13,1 21.5" late 2012 to upgrade the ram as well as exchange the HHD with SSD. When I put everything back together and try to boot up all I hear is the chime but the display does not turn on.  Any suggestions before I open it up again? Thanks.

=== Update (09/20/2016) ===

Update: I took the iMac to a Mac repair shop here in Austin. They said I most likely shorted out the logic board installing the new ram. Apparently iMacs don't like being upgraded. The shop won't even upgrade the ram because of this. So now I sit here with a dead computer, an SSD, and new ram that are totally worthless. Thanks OWC!
