iPhone not charging Learn how to fix your lightning cable in 90 seconds!

Is your iPhone not charging when you plug it in? You may have a lightning cable connector with dirty, corroded or oxidized pins. This is a known problem especially with pin #5 (ironically, the fourth one from the left.) Pin 5 carries the power and charging voltage to the phone. Here's how I fixed up two of my own lightning cables, using things I had in my kitchen: 99% Isopropyl alcohol, some vinegar, a cloth, and some Q-tips. If you have a misbehaving lightning cable, hopefully this works for you, too! ** LIGHTNING CABLE CLEANING ** -------- * Q-tip w/99% Isopropyl Alcohol (“IPA“) or “Goo Gone”, if you have it * Dry clean w/cloth or similar * Soak in 5% vinegar for up to an hour, check occasionally * Dry clean again -------- That's it!
