Digitizer don't work after replacement

Hey,

My wife IPad has been smashed by the dog. Touch screen was working (I tested every corner and other places) but it was so smashed so we couldn't use it anymore. I ordered new digitizer and watched some tutorials and videos on YT how to do this. The hardest thing was removing old smashed digitizer and clean old glue. When I done it I connected new digitizer but it don't react for any touch. Sometimes screen is moving my it looks randomly. For me it looks fine but could you tell me what could be the reason? Pins looks fine for me but when I was removing old glue I scraped off some black paint on that thing between connectors and battery connector. Could it be the problem? Replacing digitizer in some service in Poland is pretty expensive and Apple can only replace whole device for price which is higher than new one (wtf).

I also tried to connect broken digitizer but I cut flex cable when I was removing broken digitizer.

Edit:

Case is related with IPad 10.2 9gen A2602

Sorry - maybe this little late for you, but I had the same problem yesterday. Perhaps it is usefull for somebody else.

My digitizer was damaged in the lower part, near the home botton. During removing it cracked in many little parts.

So I didnt recognize, that I removed insulation parts on the left and right side. They are thin, white and semy-transparent.

When I made my first test with the new digitizer, the iPad seems to be dizzy - from wizzards hand apps are opend and text was inserted.

Then I put some insulation tape on on the left and right side over the parts marked in the attached photo with yellow.

Then everything was fine: the touchscreen worked as usual and also the home button.

Kind regards - Andreas
