Introduction |
| Follow the steps in this guide to replace the lower flex cable in an iPhone 6s Plus. This cable assembly is home to the headphone jack and Lightning connector. If your phone is having trouble charging or connecting via USB, or you have a loose headphone jack, replacing this component can resolve your issue. | | | Note that it's possible to replace this component while leaving the logic board installed, by skipping steps 22-37, 40-49, and 53. Then in step 56, instead of removing the speaker, you must either carefully move it out of the way, or detach it from the black antenna cables so you can remove it. Afterward, when removing the Lightning connector assembly, you must be extra careful not to pry against the logic board or battery. This approach leaves you less room to work, but eliminates a lot of steps. | | | You can also use this guide to replace the '''[https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iPhone+6s+Plus+Lightning+Connector+and+Headphone+Jack+Replacement/54171#s119184| lightning connector bracket]'''. |
