I was going to suggest static shock, but I don't think that's the reason. So the iMac turned on BEFORE you replaced the display, and then as soon as you did, it doesn't?

@zach408 did you get a resolution on this? I am facing the same issue

If I remember correctly: remove the power cable from the back of the iMac. Above the power socket but hidden by the circular skirt of the plug is a button. Press the button firmly - it is some kind of mechanical latch but again from memory with not much travel and no obvious “click”. Replace the power cable and try to switch on again.

that opens the RAM tray??? what about it? @jbn858273

Really? All I can say is that we had an iMac that consistently would not power on. After I discovered the button and pressed it - the RAM cover remained on - the next time it immediately powered on.

Is it possible that there is a safety cutout that cuts power if the RAM cover is loose, and that this action reset it? Or that the cover needs to be popped and firmly replaced?

the cover is not the issue, its just a cover. the tray must be in, but in any case this could not be the issue described

Does the fan run? Often I find that the problem is memory. What I suggest is removing all memory cards except 1 at the lowest slot. Try again then.
