Hello! I attempted replacing the frame/front housing of my Switch.

Following the initial attempt, the LCD does not turn on beyond the backlight. The digitizer and speakers still work, as I hear the switch respond to the touchscreen.

Two notes about the attempt:
- the plastic on the border of the LCD was a little warped by my heat gun. this is somewhat near the LCD connector
- the LCD connector is a pretty right fit. is this normal?

I did take apart and reassemble once more, primarily to make sure the LCD was seated snugly.

Any suggestions or recommendations?

Check the LCD connector for bent pins. That connector is very fragile and you have to be very very careful when removing/reinserting the ribbon cable.
