iPhone 6S Charging Port Repair Shown in 4 minute Fix - YouTube

Today I’m going to show you how to replace the charging port in your IPhone 6S. Before

you jump into this semi difficult repair make sure that it’s not just a piece of dust

or lint blocking your charging port. You can usually reach in there and clean it out with

a small brush or a tooth pick. I will link all the tools and parts you need down in the

video description of this video. There are two screws down at the bottom of the phone.

They are pentalobe screws. Unscrew them. Now you can lift up on the screen with a suction

cup and pry between the metal frame of the screen and the metal frame of the phone. Make

sure not to bend the screen at all while you’re pulling it up or else you will break your

LCD, and it will turn into a more costly repair then just your charging port. There is adhesive

surrounding the outside of the phone. I separated that with my plastic pry tool, and the screen

was able to just lift up away from the body. Be very careful. Do not bend the screen up

the screen past 90 degrees. So there are 4 screws here and metal plate. I will link a

free PDF screw chart organizer in the video description. That will help out. There are

3 ribbon cables right here you can just unsnap them from the phone like Legos. Then there’s

a metal plate and screws here for the charging port. There’s two screws right here for

the vibrator motor. It just pulses back and forth instead of spinning around like a regular

vibrator motor. You can see the contact points for the charging port. I am disconnecting

the battery and disconnecting the charging port from the motherboard. Pull it away from

the loud speaker. Then there is one wire cable down here on the motherboard as well. Be very

careful with that it is fragile. There is 3 screws here for the loud speaker. Also 3

screws here for the headphone jack, and then six screws here just for the charging port

itself. Make sure to put all those on the screw organizer that you printed out from

the video description. Then there is one hidden screw behind this black tape. Just scrape

away the black tape and find your little hidden guy. Remove it. Pull up the end of this wire

cable from the loud speaker and the loud speaker will be able to pull away from the phone body.

Here’s the loud speaker it has two gold contact points up at the top. They just rest

up against the charging port ribbon cable and that’s how it receives its signal. Then

the charging port ribbon cable can lift up away from the phone. Be very gentle because

there are two parts that are still stuck to the phone body. There’s a microphone here

and then there’s a microphone on the other side as well, and it’s held in with this

little plastic bit. There is a spot on the screw chart for that as well. Keep it organized.

Then you can pull away the other microphone from the phone body. Pull the headphone jack

out from its little slot in the phone body as well and that releases your charging port.

You can see the contact points for the vibrator, the loud speaker, the two microphones, the

headphone jack, and the charging port itself. Here’s the empty phone body. Take your new

charging port. There’s probably adhesive on it, so remove all of the safety tabs on

top of the adhesive. Set your charging port down into place and put the microphones back

into their spot. Make sure the hole lines up with the hole in the frame as well. Otherwise

your microphone won’t be able to hear you when you speak. Then you can line up the little

rubber piece as well. Put all the screws back into place except for the red one. Leave the

red one out for right now. Get the loud speaker put back into place as well. Once again all

this stuff will be linked down in the video description. Make sure to get the wire back

into place, and make sure it’s pinched on top of the loud speaker; you can see the top

left there. Now you can put in the rest of the screws that hold in the loud speaker,

and the charging port. You can clip the ribbon cable into place, and the wire cable. Make

sure that positioned directly on top of its connection before you place it down. 2 screws

holding the vibrator motor. Then the last thing you want to pin down is the cable for

the battery. There’s the 3 ribbon cables for the screen. You have your front camera,

digitizer, and LCD ribbons. Make sure they are all placed down. Then before I put the

metal plate in I’m just going to turn on the phone and make sure it works. Looks like

everything is working fine, but if you have like lines running through your screen or

any white there is a good chance that your cables aren’t plugged in correctly and you

are going to want to re-seat them, and plug them in again. To get your screen pinched

down into place line up the top first then you can slide your hands down the side and

clamp it down into place all the way down. If you have any questions make sure to leave

them down in the comments. I do respond fairly regularly. Make sure to put the bottom two

screws in the bottom of your phone. Make sure to check out a couple of my other videos and

cellphones. Thanks a ton for watching, hope to see you around.
