DS Wont Turn On

My DS had a broken hinge in it and a faulty game drive in it (something was dropped into the drive and one of the tabs that reads the games was broken off while trying to remove the piece dropped into it) so i bought a ds where the hinge was fine, and switched around the pieces to make a working DS. I had everything going well and turned the system on with a game in it, and the game ran fine.  The only problem was that the screen was very very dim and wavy. Pale in some ways.  After this i opened the console again to tighten the ribbon between the top and bottom screens. Once i sealed the system and turned it back on the bottom screen and green light flashed on and then went off (from what i have seen this is the L2 fuse blowing.) Since this happened nothing I have been able to do has shown any sign of power at all. I have switched the battery out with a charged one and switched the motherboard with the other broken one. The MoBo with the broken game drive powered up fine, so the switch is fine.  Is this just the L2 blowing that is preventing the DS from showing any power at all? Thanks in advance for your help.
