FPC Connectors and Flex Cables for iPhone 17

iPhone 17 FPC connectors and flex cables: restore internal connections

FPC connectors are the small sockets soldered on the logic board that the battery, charging port and flex cables plug into; flex cables carry the signal from buttons and sensors to the board. When one of them is damaged, the connected part stops working even if it's fine.

Common symptoms

A new battery that isn't detected, a phone that won't charge even with a new port, bent or torn connector pins after a repair, a power button that doesn't respond, a screen that stays on near your ear or stuck auto-brightness.

How to choose the right part

Check the connector under a microscope first: if the pins are damaged you need the FPC connector, which is replaced by micro soldering. If the problem is the button or the sensor, the flex cable is enough. All parts on this page are specific to the iPhone 17, unless the name states otherwise.
