Replaced screen and digitizer, but touch doesn't work

My son's Asus T300 had a cracked screen and wasn't responding well to touch. So I purchased the replacement parts. I replaced the parts. I put the think ribbon back the one next to it with the tiny wires connected. But touch doesn't seem to work.

There is a picture in this link of the coil location. I forget what connector that is but im sure you can figure it out by how many pins are in the picture."

"It could one of several things.

First was the power switch still on and the battery plugged in when you detached the original screen?

This could have caused a small surge and blown out a micro fuse or some micro electronic piece. Its located near the digitizer cable. You would see a small scorch mark there. You will have to run a jumper to get it to work. Just bypass it with solder.

Second you could have the wrong digitizer. There are several models. Make sure the part number matches the old one.

Third. the cable could still not be in all the way. check this first. It shouldnt need any type of software upgrade or update to work."

"I need to replace my digitizer on the tablet asus transformer pad tf300t-1e018a. The problem is i did not know there were 4 versions of it before i threw the old one out. Is there a way i can find out from the model number, serial number, or any other specification present on the mainboard or other parts of the tablet except the digitizer ribbon, which version i need to order?

Maybe someone with the exact same model can tell me which digitizer they have?"

No answer for you but just went through the same thing. Never any problem with touch screen, then dropped and cracked screen. Didn't work. Bought new digitizer and just installed without sticky tape for testing purposes. Getting the same result. What else could have broke when I initially dropped it so only touchscreen would not work? Used the keyboard with it so I know everything else works.
