There is a good chance that the housing assembly you bought has been sitting in numerous warehouses for the last several years. There is a good chance that the battery dried out.
If you got a voltmeter, you can check the voltage on the pins. Should be around 3.8 volts dc or so, with the left pin being ground. If you plug in the charger and measure, you should see the voltage going up if it is low.. If it stays the same, the battery won't hold a charge, and a replacement battery is needed...
The first thing I change on any iphone or ipod that won't turn on or charge is the battery

I found the solution! For reference I have an iPhone 5, and mine went into charging screen after I tried Upgrading into iOs 9.
If you've tried every single thing on the net hard reset, soft reset, cleaning charger port, etc. and still can't get it to get OFF the Charging Screen & You think you need a new battery, TRY this method first:
Let the iPhone completely die. Plug an original iPhone charger to USB cord & into your PC or Mac. While it's plugged in - Reboot the Laptop, this may take once or several trials before the iPhone finally turns on/or into the Apple Logo, eventually you will finally be able to sign onto iTunes, and restore, or restart your iPhone. Results : Go To www.everythingicafe.com search through the forums "iphone wont charge or turn on". I bought a Battery from here, thinking that was the issue, although my phone will need a new battery eventually ( due to dying quickly ) Nothing has worked for me, Until I tried those steps. Hope this helped.
