iPhone Charging Port Repair in Lahore
If your iPhone only charges when the cable is held at an angle, charges slowly, shows “Liquid Detected” when it is dry, or does not charge at all, the Lightning or USB-C port is the usual cause. APEX Repairing Lab in Hassan Tower, Gulberg III, Lahore, near Hafeez Center, cleans or replaces iPhone charging ports for every model, usually in 30–60 minutes. We test the cable, the port, the battery and the charging circuit first so you only pay for the real fault.

Charging problems we fix
- Charges only at an angle or when the cable is pressed in: worn or bent port contacts.
- Not charging at all with a known-good cable and adapter.
- Slow charging or the phone stops charging when it warms up.
- “Liquid Detected in Lightning Connector” or “Charging Not Available” when the phone is dry: corrosion or debris in the port.
- “Accessory not supported” with original cables, or the cable feels loose.
- No connection to a computer or CarPlay while charging still works: damaged data pins.
- Charges wirelessly but not by cable, which confirms the port rather than the battery.
Cleaning or replacement? What the free diagnosis tells us
Roughly a third of the iPhones that arrive “not charging” only need the port cleaned. Pocket lint, dust and Lahore’s summer sweat pack into the bottom of the port and stop the cable seating fully. We clean the port under magnification with non-conductive tools and test again before quoting anything else. If the contacts are worn, bent, corroded or the port is loose, the charging port flex assembly is replaced. On most iPhones this flex also carries the bottom microphone, so a port fault sometimes explains muffled calls too.
How much does iPhone charging port repair cost in Lahore?
Cleaning is inexpensive and quick. A port assembly replacement depends on the model: the Lightning flex on the iPhone 11 to 14 and the USB-C flex on the iPhone 15, 16 and 17 series are priced differently, and Pro Max parts cost more. If the port is fine but the phone still does not charge, the fault is usually the battery or the charging IC (Tristar / Hydra) on the logic board, which is a board-level repair we quote separately after diagnosis. You approve the price before any work starts; message us your model and the symptom on WhatsApp for a quote.
Lightning vs USB-C on iPhone
The iPhone 5 to iPhone 14 series use the Lightning port; the iPhone 15 series and newer use USB-C. USB-C ports are more robust but collect debris just as easily and their retention springs are in the cable rather than the port, so a “loose” feeling is often the cable. Both port types are replaced as a full flex assembly on the iPhone, not as a bare connector, which is why the repair is done in under an hour with no soldering on most models.
How long does it take?
Port cleaning takes about 10 minutes. A port flex replacement takes 30–60 minutes, longer on Pro Max models where the assembly is larger. Board-level charging IC repairs take a few hours and we tell you upfront.
