If you only removed the cover?? Then you could have a broken wire. Open it up and look very carefully at the wires, touch each one without pulling too hard. The thermostat wires are single wire (not twisted multiwire) and are susceptable to breaking at the end of the insulation. One reason they break there, is because the wire could have been nicked when the insulation was removed and a small movement could complete the break. Also do you have anything showing in the display? Remove the battery and put it back in or replace it.
