Touch screen not working after replacement on ipad mini 1

My touch didgitizer cracked under the top glass some how, the touch screen wouldent work so i orded a cheap sly pry kit on amazon and atempted to replace it. I followed a youtube video and when i tested the screen before sealing it, the touch screen wouldent work. I retried attaching and disconnecting all the connectors (battery, lcd and digitizer ) but the touch screen still wouldent work. I checked my prongs and they are all fine. But i noticed a small crease on the ic chip / digitizer cable from when i tried to test the screen, and a label on the new digitizer said " Do not fold the digitizer cable or the screen wont work" . I see most youtube videos just placing down the screen which folds the cable. Im not sure if i broke the digitizer or if it is fualty or if something internally maltfunctioned like software or a wire . Please help me Asap , thnx
