Screen won't light up after disassembly

[jtcarlto]

My HP Envy dv6 7245us had a broken cooling fan, so I purchased one off eBay. After installation and putting the laptop back together (best attempt) the screen no longer lights up. This wasn't an issue before. I am guessing I forget to re-plug in some cord ...does anyone know which cord controls this function? I have an HP manual that I used in disassembly, so if anyone knows the name of this cord and in what stage it's reconnected (i.e. system board) that would be of great help. Thanks a bunch!!! -Jeff

Can you take a picture of your laptop taken apart please?

Hi, if you have replace the fan, you should not have touch the cable for the screen, then, your problem should be something else.

I can but that really wouldn't help me? I am just curious if anyone knows the cord that controls the screen turning on.

The laptop is currently "together" but obvi I forget to plug something in since the monitor has no light.

I'm a computer geek, But I couldn't tell you what each cord was if my life dependent on it. so the picture helps me find what's wrong

If you try an external monitor, do you have a picture on it?
