There are a few possibilities - a bad touchscren, a broken wire (wires can break due to stress or to being laid out wrong when the phone is put together), a bad connector, a bad component on the motherboard ...

The phone has to be brought into a shop and diagnosed. If you replaced all the possible causes (asuming you didn't break anything while doing it - which is what usually happens), you'd pay more than a good used phone sells for, and that's about the only alternative. (Replacing the touch screen, if you're not experienced, is going to result in your breaking the screen at best, requiring a whole screen replacement.)
