Thank you soooooooooooooooooo much for figuring this out yourself and sharing the knowledge. Apple wants to charge 700+ for something SO common to occur considering how easily the port can be bent. I hope you have a fantastic day --Somebody in TN that you just helped save $700+ you're awesome

Wow what a genius. Thank you for this! Keeping hope alive. Will probably have to get port ubs-c port fixed, but I found that if you squeeze the base and screen portion of the charger while its plugged in itll work. Until that stops working will i have it replaced. Thank you again!

Hi, terrific video ! Thank you. one question, how do you know its the charging port or a battery? The battery symbol shows , but one charge. I am beginning to think it's a battery issue and not a port issue. Then I can order the right part if you can help me with this question, thank you again !
@repaironwheels 8 ай бұрын
generally the battery wont go from working to not working overnight unlike the charge port there are exceptions but the charge port goes bad a lot more than the battery does on this model. you could always order both and return the part that wasnt needed (assuming they let you) if its not that it would most likely be a board issue. if thats the case id be happy to take a look at it if you mail it in

He’s right that’s the only way to do it. Just remember to power off the device first. Lol man I just use plastic cards and sesamo tool your suction and tweezers to take off adhesive scares me but whatever works. I’ve been doing this for years and I wanted to ask you if you ever had to replace the back camera lens on the 12.9 4th gen pro. I had a customer come in and I can’t find a video I’m trying to do it without removing the back camera and taking the whole thing apart. Thanks.

I’d say so. You need a way to disconnect current from the motherboard. Just because a device is off there is still electricity running through the board.
@augustin9272 9 ай бұрын
Is it really necessary to disconnect the screen ? Also, what's the point of the battery isolator ?
@repaironwheels 9 ай бұрын
It’s always a good idea to disconnect the battery whenever you are connecting or disconnecting anything from the board, helps to avoid accidentally bridging 2 lines/pins Most models of iPads Dont have a connector for the battery so you need to use an isolator tool Disconnecting the screen is very little work and will avoid accidentally tugging or tearing the flex. Is it necessary no. But would you really want to hold up the screen the whole time while swapping the port then removing the adhesive from the frame then prepping the frame and adding adhesive? Wouldn’t it be far easier to disconnect 4 flex cables and set aside a slightly expensive part

I slowly took apart my ipad Pro 4th generation and replaced the charging port just like you have done here and now it will not charge at all. I am so frustrated. I work on this daily because I am an illustrator and now I am left with a brick of an ipad pro. I will say that before I replaced the port the old port was all messed up but would charge if at an angle or jiggled around, now nothing charges it. If anyone has any advice I would love to hear it and would appreciate any help! It's only 2 years old so this is extremely frustrating.

Without having eyes on its a bit difficult. It always helps to have a known good of something (charging cable, charging dock flex, battery, etc) with which to compare it to. If you don’t have a usb amp reader id suggest getting one. They are pretty cheap and will tell you if the device is actually taking a charge. For all you know it’s not
