SIM Card Reader for iPhone 4S

The SIM Card Reader for iPhone 4S is the contact connector soldered onto the logic board that reads the micro SIM inserted in the tray: it is the component that links the SIM to the phone's modem.

It needs replacing when the iPhone shows "No SIM" or "Invalid SIM" with a working SIM, when the SIM is detected only intermittently or when pressing on the tray, or when the contacts are bent, broken or corroded, often after inserting a badly cut SIM or a non-original tray.

• Type: micro SIM reader / connector.
• Function: reads the micro SIM.
• Fitting: to be soldered onto the logic board (micro-soldering).
