If you changed the screen yourself, then you’ll need to open it up and closely inspect the Home Button flex. Look for any tears along the flex or a kink due to an incorrect bending of the flex. The other possibility is that the connector on the logic was damaged.

Can’t be the flex as tried another working flex and home button still does not work and I was careful slotting the flex back in to connection
It is likely a logic board issue, although button is one the two functions rely on different circuits and once you rule out bad connector or a bad flex there's nothing else left I could think of. I had a similar issue not long ago with a customer's iPad Air, but it had signs of previous repair attempt with melted plastics.
