How to fix a charger port which won’t connect using a simple cleaning method.
If you are having issues with your lightning, micro-USB or USB-C charger port where it won’t charge, or it keeps connecting and disconnecting, then cleaning the lint and dirt out with a toothpick might help you fix this problem.
In this video, I fix my iPhone 6S by clearing out a surprising amount of dirt and dust from the charger port.
Note – take care when using this or any other cleaning method. Do not use liquid or anything metallic.

Yesterday night I watched your video after my iPhone 11 charging place frustrated me for several months! Before I watched your video, I went to a nearby phone repairing shop and the owner told me that I need to pay 99€ to fix the problem! But I refused and came back home and watched your video suddenly! Then in the morning, I told my wife about it. Initially she didn’t believe me but then we cleaned the port with a needle gently! The amount of sponge type trash that was removed from the port was shocking! I wish if I could attach the picture here! After we cleaned everything and removed all the trashes, we charged my dying phone! Everything works perfectly and I am super happy now! My wife is still in disbelief! Thank you sir for saving us from another disaster of paying to repair the phone or buying a new one 😅😅😅
What if you don't have toothpics or anything ?
Omg I’m gonna cry. Thank u thank u so much for sharing your trick. U save my problem <3

Thanx u
This guy saved my life I was on ONE PERCENT THERE 💯💯

This worked for a set of airpod pro that I had given up on and replaced two years ago. Used the toothpick and there was what looks like a wood chip in the port. We were clearing our land around that time so that makes sense. Now I have two working sets. Thank you!
I am fed up of toothpocks no gunk comes out but still the same problem
I cant believe what I just did😂😂it 💯 works now. Just 1minutes after I did this and it works!
i broke my charger for no reason… i found this video and my phone works perfectly now
Bro I tried this but it doesn’t work, my phone only charges when it dies but when it turns on it disconnects 🤦♂️
Yah it’s working. 😂thanks .
This doesn’t work for me 🙁
this is the most swag video to ever exist
Watching with 3 percent 😊
Let’s see if he reply…
Yay it worked
keep up the amazing work.
thank you brother
Sometimes it could just be that the charger port is broken…
I tried it but still it doesnt work
I hate the lightning charger, it sucks! I’ve never had issues with anything else, hundreds of items. I used toothpicks and dental picks and contact cleaner and it’s still jacked up! Pisses me off, I’m glad iPhone has now gone usb, unfortunately I only by used iPhones so won’t see one of those for a few years. People are crazy to spend 1,500, that’s the cost of a cheap car!
How using dry toothbrush can on it as well or not
Doesn't this same method works on Samsung galaxy s6 lite tab
Thank you! My charger port is fix now 😀
