DS Lite Not working after Shell Replacement.

[SrinpyMusicalTechSquirrel]

I just got a shell replacement for my broken hinge on my DS Lite. After about an hour and a half of taking apart the DS and putting it together enough to test (no shoulder buttons or screws in the bottom case), it refuses to boot. My current thought is that the Antenna is put on wrong. (My other issue is that the top screen doesn't work, but that's been an issue since I got the DS, and the solution is a new screen, so don't worry about that.) Other than that, I really do not know why it's not working, despite hooking it up correctly (at least I'm 99% sure it's correct).

Update: figured out why it's not booting. I absolutely crunched the antenna cable. And, like the Wii, the DS refuses to boot without it. Looks like I'll need to go buy the replacement parts.
