Inspiron 1525 LCD replacement

I'm working on a Dell Inspiron 1525 WXGA screen replacement.

I got the new screen and put it in (what a PAIN!!!!)

Now the new screen backlight comes on, but there's never any video. I did get video once out of it, so I know the LCD panel should work, but I can't get anything now. If I disconnect the LCD signal cable the screen goes all white. If I disconnect the inverter cable the backlight shuts off.

I'm thinking I need a new cable, which the part number is 4W001 »www.machinaelectronics.com/store···W001.101

The old cracked Samsung screen is 15.4" WXGA dell part RP636 which I got off the dell invoice from putting the service tag into dell's support site.

The only difference is the bracket for the inverter at the bottom was non-existent on the new screen, so I had to pry off the bracket from the old screen and hammer it out since I bent it in the process. But everything plugs in and fits good and tight. Only reason why I think it *might* be the cable is because it was taped onto the old LCD, and maybe prying the tape off damaged the wires inside the cable.

Any idea's?
