Easy Fix: iPhone and iPad Not charging loose Lightning Charging Connector Port

[@stephthom2]

I just want to add that this worked for me! I have been bending my charge cord for months to get a good connection for my ipad to charge and I was about to pay to get it fixed until I finally found your video today. You are the best! Cheap packing tape is a lot less expensive than going to a repair place.

[@thechrixter6193]

Was about to give up on my phone, charging point was full of lint since it was in my pocket all the time. Did not know lint could get in until I saw your video and cleaned my charging point with a toothpick and it did the trick. Sir, you are an Angel. Thank you very much for your help.

Had the same issue on our son's iPad air and my Iphone 6S Plus, was considering replacing the lightning port myself on the iPhone and having our son's done professionally as they are harder and the iPad connection was much more loose, 4 pieces of scotch tape later both charging up and no more loose connection! What a great time and money saving tip! Liked and Subscribed.

I’d tried every cleaning hack I could find and still my phone would only charge when the charger was at a certain angle. I was starting to think I’d need to pay for repairs or even a new phone when I found this video. A tiny strip of insulation tape later, my phone charges just like it did when it was new! You saved my ass here, dude - thank you!

[@richskinny668]

Thanks, Carl. I did not want to use tape to fix the problem, so I thoroughly cleaned the charging slot with a toothbrush. I put sanitizer on the toothbrush (because I knew it would evaporate fast, thus not causing water damage). I could see the gunk on the toothbrush and cleaned it off with toilet pape. Voila! No more charging problems. Hope this helps others.

[@davidschwabph.d.8240]

Tape worked! I used clear plastic wrapping tape. First I made a template by trimming a piece of paper to size with scissors. Then I used the template to create the exact size for the tape. Thanks!

Oh my God! We cleaned my son’s iPad port several times. Yes, wiggling the charging wire around did work for some time, but Presto, as I too thought the problem was exactly what you pointed out. By placing two pieces of thin tape into the port, the connection was reestablished, and is now charging. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[@alejandroolmoslira7657]

I couldn’t find what to do when there was no dirt on the port but the connection still was loose anywhere but here. It may not be as “permanent” as I would it to be, but it’s a big noticeable difference with no cost. Electric tape was a bit too thick, but the clear one worked wonders. Now I actually have to try a bit to unplug it rather than accidentally unplug it every minute. Big thank you.

[@TheUglyGooseling]

bro thank you so much, this is an ipad pro, the newest one, and it has a TERRIBLE loose charger port, and this helped out so much. tysm bro, ur a life savior.

[@CarlPugh]

@@TheUglyGooseling Wow… very surprising to hear about a newer iPad having this problem! Glad the fix worked.

[@TheUglyGooseling]

@@CarlPugh update: the first time didn’t work, and just recently i tried to fix it but i put tape over ALL the sides, top, bottom, left, and right. the problem is that it has a VERY TERRIBLE loose cable, like, it didn’t charge at all. and even now with it taped up (every spot/hole) its still not 100% fixed, more like 85%. but seriously though, thanks. i heard its around 100$ - 300$ to get it replaced, and thats a lot.

[@lou8626]

Yeah my iPad Air 5 just out of warranty and the tape works but not a long term solution. How do they charge so much for something that last for a year 😔

[@josep.8505]

does the tape technique work on my problem? The thing is, the cable my Ipad needs to be plugged in and out plenty of times before i could get a good charging sign. Sometimes it would be instant and sometimes it would take ages of pull ou pull in. If i move the cable around it still charges. Hoping you cab find a fix for my problem as well.

[@kd_1025]

Same problem

[@CarlPugh]

This should fix your problem. But even if it doesn't there is no harm in trying. You can simply pull the tape back out.

[@KeithHill2]

Thanks.. worked like a charm.. the only KZbin video that actually worked

[@civilmack]

I thought I was a goner, then the iphone medic came along with a tiny piece of electrical tape and saved the day. You, Sir are a true American hero!

[@NyteWaves]

Thanks! I am fixing an iPad with this issue and I think it is an Apple refurbished model. It seems Apple may use your same technique. At first I was using some tools to remove the debris in the port. Then a black plastic looking piece started to come out. it was pretty big but seemed to disintegrate when i pulled on it. So i removed it. Now I am thinking that is what they used to try to make it more snug! The side clips now work to "snap" it in, but there is still a lot of play up and down. The tape should solve that.

[@ShesWhiskeyinaTeacup]

Lifesaver of a tip- thank you so much for sharing! This is my second time watching this video to fix my phone. I used the electrical tape this time and it works even better. ❤️

[@aprillovelace8180]

Omg! I have been battling my charging port for 4/5 months. My ex stole my phone and I was left with a older 6 plus given to me by a coworker. I have just about lost my mind dealing with this plus the stress of a break up and needing to relocate. It’s hard to make important calls with a broken phone. This is going to save me money and eliminates the stress of not having a properly functioning device. I plan to buy a new phone after the move. Thank you so much❤

[@bryonmusante1834]

This worked so well! Used a glasses lens cleaning alcohol wipe on the end of the paper clip to dissolve some of the funk that had built up. Now the charger sticks in the port like new!

[@PianoWeb00]

3 pieces of scotch tape and you’ve saved me $1099 plus $125 gen 2 pen (bc gen 1 pen doesn’t work with new iPads) plus tax plus the time of setting it all up! Wish all 765K viewers you’ve had on this video could send you $1 or more each!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU 🤩

[@rpiian]

Excited to try this, thanks for the tip! My 6s barely charges anymore without jiggling it around, and putting pressure on the cable in a particular position, the cable just falls out when upright. I even cleaned it and I’m using a legit apple lightning cable.

[@luhrockstaarr_.9892]

I put electrical tape and bam my phone is charging perfectly thank you again!!!

Cleaning out all the gunk using a toothpick worked. With the phone facing up I always had to push the charger in the port upwards so it makes better contact with the pins in the phone. Cleaning all the fluff out helped. So much crap stuck in there ! Cheers!

[@silvertongue3003]

So after my iPad was still charging fine yesterday before I unplugged it, this morning it just wouldn't charge at all. I tried resetting it and cleaning out the port, I have to say that the lightning cable do feel like there's some play when plugged into my new iPad compared to when it's plugged into my old iPad 4, so trying your piece of tape method is now going to be my last attempt fixing it before admitting defeat and traveling to take my frustration out at an Apple Store. If it works I guarantee to be your newest and most loyal subscriber because you would have saved me a trip of over 400 miles..

Great video! I was on the interwebs looking for instructions on how to replace the charging dock on my iPhone 7. It looked like a scary process and I've already replaced the battery on it, so I'm not a complete noob! But a toothpick and about 10 minutes of digging and now the phone charges just fine!. Thanks!!!!

[@JohnTheHarrison]

Carl, you are a legend! I was worrying about my phone doing intermittent charging to completely stopping and found this. I actually used the strip of a sticky label and folded it over and luckily my phone case holds the paper in place so no chance of losing the new perfect fit.

[@deankay4434]

Another saved repair for an older eye phone 6. A retired auto tech with a huge understanding of terminal pin fit. Yes, it must be clean, also use an approved charge cable that is 6 feet long. Always unplug the cable when transporting, it just strains tiny metal terminals. This is the equivalent of someone grabbing 6 different hairs on your (Place Part Here) and pull on them all day with a gentle weight constant. Hurts a little, but will drive you crazy. The connections to charge the battery and a certain amount of battery management system is on the back side, opposite of the screen. Try the packing tape thinnest first, move up from their. Thanks for this clear video that is presented in a way everyone can get-r-done

[@BringMeThatFlab]

So i messed up with the tape and it popped out, but when it came out, a big piece of lint came out the port and now it works fine. The biggest thing is to make sure the hole is clean

[@uchuuhime]

Bless you for this! No longer will my family be driven mad by the unending bloops of my iPhone charger disconnecting and reconnecting.😭 ❤️ TIP! Depending on the brand you might want to steer away from electrical tape. I first used Scotch Super 33+ but it left a lot of adhesive gunk behind and pulled out as soon as I put the case back on. 😓 Regular clear tape worked fine, ironically.

[@rrider993]

Scotch Super33 is extra stretchy and sticky rubber resin -PVC tape....excellent for high voltage electrical work, and self-sealing connections, but cheap “vinyl” electrical is “stiffer” and usually less sticky.

Thanks, man. I'm quite handy with fixing iPhones and iPads, and had cleaned the lightning port of my iPad Mini 2 very well already.. But it wouldn't charge. It would just jump from charger connected, to nothing, to charger connected, to nothing.. I thought maybe I messed something up when I installed my new digitizer, but it turns out it was just this... 'Loose' (or 'roomy') charging port. The electrical tape made the difference :) Not the prettiest solution, but it works. And it's easily replaced for no money at all when the tape comes loose eventually. (Pretty much every piece of technology I own (including power tools) has had a 'not pretty but it works' fix like this along the way. And they work fine for years after. So it fits the rest of my stuff ;)) Sincerely; thanks a lot This has saved me a lot of money and, more importantly, got my iPad Mini working again (and consequently; all my music / DAW files back. I use that thing to make music, since my iPhone alone doesn't have enough storage for all my apps) Cheers from Amsterdam

A consumer paying $999.00 for a product shouldn’t have to put electrical tape in the product because it’s worn out.
