    • If your display glass is cracked, keep further breakage contained and prevent bodily harm during your repair by taping the glass.

    • Lay overlapping strips of clear packing tape over the iPhone's display until the whole face is covered.

    • This will keep glass shards contained and provide structural integrity when prying and lifting the display.

    • Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes from any glass shaken free during the repair.

    • Before you proceed, discharge your iPhone battery below 25%. A charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.

    • Power off your iPhone before beginning disassembly.

    • Remove the two 3.8 mm P2 Pentalobe screws on either side of the Lightning connector.

    • The next two steps demonstrate using the iSclack, a great tool for safely opening the iPhone 5c that we recommend for anyone doing more than one repair on an iPhone 5, 5s, or 5c. If you aren't using the iSclack, skip to Step 5.

    • Close the handle on the iSclack, opening the suction-cup jaws.

    • Place the bottom of your iPhone in between the suction cups, against the plastic depth gauge.

    • The top suction cup should rest just above the home button.

    • Open the handles to close the jaws of the iSclack. Center the suction cups and press them firmly onto the top and bottom of the iPhone.

    • Hold onto your iPhone securely and close the handle of the iSclack to separate the suction cups, pulling the front panel up from the rear case.

    • The iSclack is designed to safely open your iPhone just enough to separate the pieces, but not enough to damage any cables.

    • Peel the two suction cups off your iPhone.

    • Skip the next three steps and continue on to Step 8.

  5. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Manual Opening Procedure: passo 5, imagem 1 %32
    • Press a suction cup onto the screen, just above the home button.

    • Be sure the cup is completely on the screen to get a tight seal.

  6. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Start lifting the front panel assembly: passo 6, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Start lifting the front panel assembly: passo 6, imagem 2 %32
    • Make sure the suction cup is firmly attached to the front panel assembly.

    • While holding the iPhone down with one hand, pull up on the suction cup to slightly separate the front panel assembly from the rear case.

    • Take your time and apply firm, constant force. The display assembly is a much tighter fit than most devices.

    • With a plastic opening tool, begin to gently pry the rear case down, away from the display assembly, while you pull up with the suction cup.

    • There are several clips attaching the front panel assembly to the rear case, so you may need to use a combination of the suction cup and plastic opening tool to free the front panel assembly.

  7. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 7, imagem 1 %32
    • Pull the plastic nub to release the vacuum seal on the suction cup.

    • Remove the suction cup from the display assembly.

  8. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Opening up the phone: passo 8, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Opening up the phone: passo 8, imagem 2 %32
    • Lift the home button end of the front panel up to gain access to the connectors near the top of the phone.

    • Open the display to about a 90º angle, and lean it against something to keep it propped up while you're working on the phone.

    • In a pinch, you can use an unopened canned beverage to hold the display.

    • Add a rubber band to keep the display securely in place while you work. This prevents undue strain on the display cables.

  9. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 9, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the two 1.6 mm Phillips #000 screws securing the metal battery connector bracket to the logic board.

  10. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 10, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the metal battery connector bracket from the iPhone.

  11. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Disconnecting the battery connector: passo 11, imagem 1 %32
    • Use a spudger or a clean fingernail to gently pry the battery connector up from its socket on the logic board.

    • Be very careful to only pry up on the battery connector itself and not the socket on the logic board. If you pry up on the logic board socket or the board itself, you may destroy the socket or damage nearby components on the board.

  12. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 12, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the following Phillips #000 screws securing the front panel assembly cable bracket to the logic board:

    • Two 1.3 mm screws

    • One 1.7 mm screw

    • One 3.25 mm screw

    • It is especially important to keep track of your screws in this step for reassembly. Accidentally using the 3.25 mm screw or the 1.7 mm screw in the bottom right hole will result in significant damage to the logic board causing the phone to no longer boot properly.

    • Be careful not to over-tighten the screws. If they don't fit easily when you are securing them, they may be the wrong size—don't force them.

  13. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 13, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the front panel assembly cable bracket from the logic board.

  14. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Disconnecting the front panel assembly cables: passo 14, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Disconnecting the front panel assembly cables: passo 14, imagem 2 %32
    • Use a plastic opening tool or a fingernail to disconnect the front-facing camera and sensor cable connector.

    • Be sure to only pry up on the connector, and not on the socket on the logic board.

  15. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 15, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 15, imagem 2 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 15, imagem 3 %32
    • Make sure the battery is disconnected before you disconnect or reconnect the cables in this step.

    • Use a plastic opening tool or a fingernail to disconnect the LCD cable connector.

    • The LCD and Digitizer connectors are on the same cable assembly, so prying the LCD connector up should disconnect both connectors. Double check that the two cables are fully disconnected before removing the display.

    • When reassembling your phone, the LCD cable may pop off its connector. A blank screen, or white lines on the display could be caused by a loose connection. Should this happen, reconnect the cable and power cycle your phone. The best way to power cycle your phone is to disconnect and reconnect the battery.

  16. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Separating front panel assembly and rear case: passo 16, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the front panel assembly from the rear case.

  17. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Battery: passo 17, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Battery: passo 17, imagem 2 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement, Battery: passo 17, imagem 3 %32
    • Run the tip of a spudger between the battery and the headphone jack to unfold the battery adhesive tab.

  18. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 18, imagem 1 %32
    • Pull the battery adhesive tab away from the phone.

  19. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 19, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 19, imagem 2 %32
    • Cut the black battery adhesive tab between the two white adhesive strips, separating them.

  20. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 20, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 20, imagem 2 %32
    • Try to keep the strips flat and unwrinkled during this procedure; wrinkled strips will stick together and break instead of pulling out cleanly.

    • Slowly pull one of the battery adhesive strips away from the battery, toward the bottom of the iPhone.

    • Pull steadily, maintaining constant tension on the strip as it slips out from between the battery and the rear case. For best results, pull the strip at a 60º angle or less.

    • Guide the strip carefully around the corner and up the side of the battery. Be careful not to snag it on any of the other internal iPhone components.

    • The strip will stretch to many times its original length. Continue pulling, re-grabbing the strip near the battery if necessary, until the entire strip comes free.

  21. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 21, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 21, imagem 2 %32
    • Repeat to remove the second strip.

  22. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 22, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the battery from your iPhone.

    • If one, or both, of the adhesive strips tears, and you are unable to retrieve it with a set of tweezers, do not pry the battery out of the phone. Continue on to the next steps to safely remove your battery.

    • Apply a few drops of isopropyl alcohol (90% or greater) under the battery and let it flow around the adhesive to help weaken it. High concentration isopropyl alcohol acts as a solvent and dries without leaving any residue, so it will not hurt your iPhone.

    • Carefully wedge a plastic card under the battery on the side nearest the logic board.

    • Do not pry against the logic board or you may damage the phone.

    • Avoid prying near the top edge of the battery, or you may damage the upper component ribbon cable.

    • Slide the card from the top of the battery to the bottom, pushing toward the edge of the case.

    • If necessary, repeat the same procedure with the case side of the battery.

  24. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 24, imagem 1 %32
    • If the battery is still stuck to the case, follow our iOpener heating instructions or use a hair dryer to heat the adhesive securing your battery to the rear case.

    • Lay the iOpener flat on the backside of the iPhone to the right of the camera. Smooth it out so that there is good contact between the back of the iPhone and the iOpener.

    • Let the bag sit on the iPhone for approximately 90 seconds before attempting to remove the battery.

    • If using a hair dryer or heat gun, heat the back of the iPhone until it's slightly too hot to touch.

    • Do not apply heat directly to the battery.

    • Overheating the iPhone may ignite the battery.

  25. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 25, imagem 1 %32
    • Lift and remove the battery from the iPhone.

    • If there's any alcohol solution remaining in the phone, carefully wipe it off or allow it to air dry before installing your new battery.

    • There should be no resistance. If the battery remains stuck, reheat the iOpener and pry again.

    • If your replacement battery came in a plastic sleeve, remove it before installation by pulling it away from the the ribbon cable.

    • Before you adhere the replacement battery, temporarily reconnect the battery connector to the motherboard socket. This ensures that the battery is properly aligned in its recess.

    • Adhere the battery, disconnect it, and continue reassembling your device.

    • If your new battery doesn’t have adhesive preinstalled, refer to this guide to replace the adhesive strips.

    • Perform a hard reset after reassembly. This can prevent several issues and simplify troubleshooting.

    • Use a plastic opening tool to peel the home button spring contact cable up from the speaker enclosure.

  27. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 27, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the following screws securing the speaker enclosure to the rear case:

    • Two 2.7 mm Phillips #000 screws

    • One 2.2 mm Phillips #000 screw

  28. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 28, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 28, imagem 2 %32

  30. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 30, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 30, imagem 2 %32
    • The far right screw hole on the speaker has a contact bracket wrapped around it. This small part may fall off unexpectedly, so it's best to remove it and note the orientation for reassembly.

    • The flat portion of the contact clip should rest against the speaker, as shown.

    • The alignment bracket on the far end of the speaker assembly is adhered, but may fall off if handled aggressively.

    • The angled end should face up and line up with the outside edge of the speaker.

  31. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 31, imagem 1 %32
    • Use a plastic opening tool to disconnect the Lightning connector ribbon cable from its socket on the logic board.

  32. iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 32, imagem 1 %32 iPhone 5c Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement: passo 32, imagem 2 %32

I fix it. Tomorrow I was got my packet from ifixit.com with lightning assembly and today my iPhone 5c can charge again.

And I would like to tell you several words about a process:

1. Thanks Ifixit for the tools - pentalope screwdriver and a magnet mat - it was great

2. All was simple with a step by step instructions on site.

3. IMPORTANT!!!! Unnecessary to remove a battery before the Lightning assembly replace - replacement possible without it)))

4. Don't forget to remove a rubber head from an old microphone - new hasn't such part.

5. Don't forget to lay an antenna cable properly when install a speaker back.

6. All the parts are very small - a magnifying glass required)))

7. I was made it for 1 hour )))

Tried to fix a faulty headphone jack now with the new part, headphones arent recognised at all...

Thanks for any advice

THOSE CHANGING JUST THE DOCK CONNECTOR!

Important! Steps 14, 15, and 19 through 28 are totally unnecessary. The SIM card is fine where it is, and the battery does not need to be removed to access everything. I would recommend disconnecting the battery connector while working, however.

Also, be careful with the little antenna where it connects to the dock connector flex. Mine broke off and had to be resoldered, but I bought the part on eBay.

Todd - Responder

Thanks for your feedback! We went ahead and removed the SIM card steps. It may be helpful to remove the battery in order to get enough clearance to separate the Lightning cable assembly from the rear case, but folks are certainly welcome to skip those steps if they are comfortable doing so. :)

Jeff Suovanen -

It is certainly not necessary to remove the battery in order to do this repair. I do not recommend following those steps.
