If your iPhone SE is not charging correctly... there are a few possible solutions. If you are sure that your charging cable works just fine. Make sure there is no dust or lint down inside your charging port. Lint build up can keep your charger from going in all the way. You can stick a thin wood or plastic tooth pick inside the port to clean it out.
If that STILL doesn't work, you will probably need to replace the charging port. Only attempt this repair if you feel confident in your abilities.
There are two screws at the bottom of the Apple iPhone SE. After that you should disconnect and remove the screen. Although not mandatory... it will be easier in the long run because you wont have to worry about hurting the iphone screen cables while you work on the charging port.

Thank you so much! My grand niece will appreciate having her phone back. I have rarely seen such a clear phone repair video, and this is greatly appreciated.

[@Channel21Jaymz]

I've changed SE screens and batteries, but never the charging port. It was certainly harder than those other things, but I got through it. Things to check at the end of the process include the headphones, microphone, charger, and speaker. When I was done, the speaker didn't work because the contacts weren't perfectly lined up. I took it back apart and adjusted it and that solved it. Thanks for the vid. Couldn't have done it without you!

[@Onambarwen]

Thank you thank you thank you! My phone wouldn't charge, couldn't afford a new one, and absolutely did not have the time to drive to the nearest repair shop. Your tutorial, along with about $20-$30 worth of parts, tools, and rush shipping - it works again. I cannot even express how grateful I am for this video and for your recommendations on finding the right parts.

[@justinburnettemusic]

Thank you so much!!! My son and I bought a replacement lightning port for $5 and were able to fix his iPhone SE with tier video!! You are awesome. Thx again.

[@JeffreyRBroido]

Ditto!

[@Hideselfview]

The "Make sure your charging port is clean from dust and lint before you start taking things apart. Sometimes this will solve your problem." notice is no joke! Thanks so much for that! I cleaned my port (used some alcohol+cotton on a metal toothpick and then a needle to clean out residue) and it seems to have worked. Thanks a lot.

[@benjaminh.morgan3193]

Was thinking of replacing mine because it had a hard time connecting to chargers, but read your advice in the description and just cleaned it with a plastic toothpick, now it works great! Thanks!

[@turneyorama]

Thanks so much Jerry! Just used your video to repair my iPhone SE charging port without a hitch. I thought getting the home button reconnected would be more difficult given your warning but it did not pose a problem for me. Beginners luck perhaps? Thanks again.

[@daanishmalik896]

Thank you jerry for the information. My iPhone SE was not charging properly due to a buildup layer of lint and dust. I was about to pay $250 for an entire port replacement. Just before i saw your video and read the description. I removed the lint layer and now it’s working fine. I’m a big fan. Thank you soooooo much.

[@simonsetyadarma4225]

Mine is weird.. My screen would jump a little when it is charging above 70%.. Do you think this is a broken port so the current is not stable or something? :'

[@zook9265]

Thanks so much for your video! I follow everything except how to remove the home button port connector from the old charging port assembly. I purchased a replacement assembly but it didn’t appear to have a home button connector. I know I’m almost there, but could really use some help. I’m a 75 year old, disabled veteran and really trying to accomplish this myself. Thanks!

[@RiceIsForDinnerNotPhones]

Thank you for DCing the battery before the screen! This is a big problem among the repair world and is particularly problematic with the 6S series phones as not DCing the battery before the screen can cause backlight issues after a repair when the BL circuit is shorted while under power (the iPad mini is also particularly prone to BL circuit damage if the battery is left plugged in before screen changes). Also, thanks for reminding people to keep track of their screws! I've seen 3 iPhone 6's and 1 5S in the last week with long-screw damage (putting a long screw in one of the short screw posts, then torquing it down - this causes the screw to twist into the logic board below and damage circuit pathways under the screw post). Keep up the great work! :)

[@JerryRigEverything]

+Rice Is For Dinner Thanks man! Its hard to remember all the important tips and suggestions in a short video like this, but I try to hit the big ones. Thanks for watching!

[@Daniel-wj6rv]

Wow this guy makes life so much easier. I about followed the ifixit guide which instructed you to remove the entire logic board

[@NavidFatehpour]

Thank you man! I was able to fix my phone on my own once again for the second time in the past 6 months!

[@JustusWeiss]

Thank you! It took me some time but now my old iPhone SE works perfektly again!

[@brandonspacek8790]

On the part about replacing the antenna, before connecting it you might want to put in the speaker and hold up the antenna wire. Worked easier for me, but whatever works. Thanks for the tutorial, worked like a charm.

[@adamjasniewski2253]

Thank you Jerry, My iphone SE works perfectly. Took me 2 hours to dissambly and assembly, but thanks to your marvelous video goes well. Had some trouble to connect touch ID, because had to replace one plate and this connector was not fixed originally (had to use sticky tape). Looking forward for new films. Thanks. Good job:):)

[@woodyloudermilk7120]

Hey, when I took the parts that were not included in the replacement port such as the home button connector and tried to transfer them to them over they had lost the adhesivness that’s as holding them on, is there a glue that I can use to stick them to the new part ?

[@morganrussell996]

Great video. Just letting you know that the links for the replacement Charging Port and the Fingerprint scanner metal latch are no longer working.

[@Fullassault]

This took an intimidating task and made it feel easy. Great resource.

[@busywl69]

I got a 6s to replace my SE which wouldn't charge. Was going to sell the SE for parts but now I'm keeping it as a backup. NIce!

[@markjohnson4237]

Success!!! Thanks for the video. I did this today. Took an hour and half and was very fiddly and given I'm 53, with the eyesight to match, it was quite an effort to see these tiny, tiny screws and fixings etc. I'd recommend using one of those magnifying glass tripod thingies, if you have access to one. But, in the end, all fixed and working again. Definitely not for the faint hearted or cack handed, that's for sure.

[@jennproctor5162]

Thanks so much for this video! Easy to follow along, clear instructions. Glad to get my phone charging reliably again!

[@alextownsend6662]

You made this look sooooooooo much easier than it is. Thanks for the false confidence. Now my phone is in pieces.

[@Rey-qd4yz]

Thanks for that. It was monter pain. Many parts after replace fails. But after connectors check everything started working.

[@TimurBakibayev]

Thank you! With your video I have just changed the port on my phone! There is one metal part left after assembling, but it seems Apple has added it just for weight balance, because everything works well :)

[@kofkyokusanagi]

Thanks for helping me! It was hard to put everything in place but it worked like a charm.

[@motofun72]

This video was very helpful. New parts installed and it's working perfect (charging too)! Thank you.

[@jamesdel6323]

I replaced everything and it all went well, but for some reason the home button has stopped working?

[@scottjones8919]

Amazing! Thank-you, thank-you for the post. Just repaired my i-phone and the process went beautifully thanks to the excellent video. I really appreciate it.

[@hugabill]

Took all day. Installed a new battery while I had it open. Was feeling confident when I got it all back together, but... Now 2am. Lost the Home button which had no problem before. Tried reconnecting the ribbon cable several times. Always looks good, but still no Home. Also lost the charger port completely. Old one was working intermittently. New one feels tighter, but no charge at all. I'll take it to a store and check it with a new lightning cable again. Then I guess I'll take it apart again later. Or just get a new phone. Love my SE.

[@Phatheading]

I lost a screw, but it appears to be in perfect working order. Thank you so much!

[@2024fam]

Very nicely done, but when assembling back the phone, the metal plates go before putting back the 6 screws

Thank you so much for this video I finally recieved the part and was able to fix the charging port on a phone that hasn't worked in ages. Amazing video!

[@pnksmigge5324]

Do you have a lot of experience with repairs like this? I think my charging port has some corrosion, but this looks much more difficult than a screen replacement for example.

[@lexik1nz]

[@fosterkane686]

I ordered two of these in case I messed one up, I thought that the installation of each went really smoothly. Neither would recognize a charger though so I reinstalled the original and it worked the same as it had before, recognizing the charger most of but not all the time. Any ideas for how to get the new charging ports to work?

[@dannyhuffman3587]

Foster Kane reset the software. Sometimes it's a software problem not a hardware

[@petrlock]

perfect guide. but after replacing charging port my loud speaker stopped working. Do you know why? Please.

[@Dylan-go2hi]

Same thing happened to me. I'm gonna try to put a speaker from another phone in the one i just repaired and see if it works. something tells me the part is faulty or that ive damaged a ribbon cable. Maybe i've hurt the loudspeaker itself. I'll report back

[@paulbradford8240]

Thank you. I have to change mine having just put in a new battery, it would appear that wasn't the problem as it doesn't charge.

I did what you said but now my home button doesn’t work. Is there something I can do to get it back to working again?

[@Tokolyser]

Great presentation (thumb up for) but misses the own boat taken. You do not change or fix the charging pod as stated - you change the whole bay. Me wanted to replace the Apple USB port for a micro USB. That's why I guessed a starter from you i.e. at least see the 5V pins to attach leads to a second slot made because there is some space for it left to the battery. Further advice in that direction is appreciated.

[@JS-ol4dx]

Does the home button metal clip need to be installed? Im bad at rocket surgery.

[@benharcourt2741]

Iphone SE. Is this charging port white or black. Ebay sellers advertise both the the black and the white. Both are referencing the SE?

[@butchpeace]

Hi, wondering if you have a suggestion - I replaced my charging port, but now the microphone doesn't work. When I test the mic on Voice memos, I get white noise. Everything seems to be seated correctly. Did I get a bad part?

[@robertpeluse3586]

It seems that you did not use a replacement part from the link you provided, because had you done so, you would have discovered immediately that the home button does not provide full functionality. I had to activate the assistive touch option as a substitute for the home button.

[@draxiouss8370]

that’s because if you replace the home button without changing the serial number to the original one, apple disables your home button

[@robertpeluse3586]

@@draxiouss8370 How do you do it?

[@lechapelaing]

I just paid 70 canadollars for the fix and looked it up after out of curiosity. And as I expected, I am sure glad I spent the dollars (even more than I expected. I would have screwed the whole thing up.) Also big-up at 3:48 at the very nice dent !.. ;) These are the phones!

i changed battery in my iphone SE, but still it is not charging, when i connect the cable to it, the battery icon does not show that the phone is charging, also battery heats up and discharges quickly, only way to charge the phone is to turn it off - will charging port replacement fix this issue for sure? or the problem is something else
