Replaced display cable, now lit but with black screen

My screen went black (no lit up screen or light to the Apple logo on the back) so I took the screen off/apart to expose the display LVDS cable. The connection on the underside of the screen had what appeared to be corrosion on it so I replaced the cable. (Photo attached) With the new cable the screen and Apple logo were lit up again but still just a blank screen. Using an external monitor everything looks fine. Any idea what the issue is? Could it still be hardware related or now a software issue?
