    Thanks, I tried to fix this for 10 mins. My phone had 21% whilst I tried to plug it in, it didn't work, it had 19% whilst I tried, it had 18% when the problem solved. Now it's at 24%. Thanks Scott Schiller you are the best at fixing tech.

      I think for this to be really effective, you need enough liquid to have a drop or two that can stay on the connector long enough to have an effect - like as shown in my video, here.

    Thanks for this video, because my wife and I were having some problems with charging iPhones. Using several different cords, sometimes not charging at all or sometimes actually losing charge. After a simple Q-tip with white vinegar, simply a few swipes and dry off. The cords are all working.
    I actually got a jeweler’s magnifying glass, and could see some minor corrosion on the tiny bars.
    ( can’t see with naked eye)
    This saved me money, cause I was ready to order new iPhone cords. Great advice.

      Another update Feb 2024, still doing the cleaning, the vinegar wasn’t working as well. Still had one contact with dark oxidation on it. I tried a q tip with a drop of Brasso polish. It really seemed to help and didn’t damage the contact. Definitely took off the black oxidation and charges working fine.

      Smart! I hope you gave your toothbrush a good rinse afterward, just to be on the safe side. 😅 I imagine toothpaste may work as a mild abrasive for this sort of stuff, too. You may be able to substitute this for baking soda, since I believe it is in many types of toothpaste.

    • @scottschiller
      @scottschiller  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I suggest trying a different charger, see if that makes any difference. If not the power supply, then see if your phone’s port is clogged or dirty. A toothpick or a plastic dental floss pick can work quite well there. For USB-C, I would not recommend vinegar just yet; they are much more complex in terms of their layout and have a lot of smaller connections.

    I only soaked it in vinegar should I clean it with alcohol 1st then soak in vinegar or can I just soak in vinegar? Because I already tried soaking 10 iPhone cords in vinegar only and they still don’t work. Also can I use 70% rubbing alcohol, I don’t have 90%? I can see on all 10 iPhone cords that the 5th pin looks corroded on all 10 cords, should I try cleaning the 5th pin with another tool to get the corrosion off of it? Can you recommend something else I can use to fix the 5th pin, since u said in the video not to scrape it with a sharp tool, what else can I do to fix the 5th pins? It’s so annoying I have a million iPhone cords and non of them work. I’m going broke buying iPhone cords! Please help!

    • @scottschiller

      If you don’t have vinegar, you can try using a bit of lemon juice and a bit of salt dissolved together. Alternately, a Q-tip and a drop or two of isopropyl alcohol, sometimes also called “rubbing alcohol” might work. The lemon juice and salt is acidic like vinegar, and may work better to clean the copper.

      I would guess Apple vinegar would work, but it may take more time if not as concentrated as typical 5% vinegar. I would recommend rinsing the connector afterward as well, in case it leaves any apple-type residue.

    • @scottschiller
      @scottschiller  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Good thinking, indeed. If the cable works with other iOS devices or chargers, then it's likely the charging port.
      I recommend trying a thin toothpick, the rectangular kind (not the round kind.) Otherwise, the curved end of one of those plastic dental floss picks could work pretty well.
      Last thing I'd recommend (because it's metal and could be sharp), one end of a paperclip. To be safe, I suggest turning your phone completely off before inserting anything metallic or otherwise conductive into the charge port which isn't a cable.

      Try a few different USB power sources - e.g., a laptop vs. an Apple iPhone charger vs. some other USB power supply. If the phone shows the ⚡️🔋 icon when connecting the cable like when it works in this video, then the phone should be charging. If it is still slow, try changing the power source. Failing that, try a different cable. Check to make sure there isn’t any lint in the phone’s lightning port, also.

    • @scottschiller
      @scottschiller  ปีที่แล้ว

      I recommend white, “kitchen” or 5% vinegar, different names for the same thing. I would avoid apple cider etc., which could have sugars that could muck up your electronics.

      You can try dissolving a small amount of table salt in some fresh lemon juice, as a substitute for vinegar which may help clean the copper contacts.

      Do you mean the phone shows it’s charging, then stops repeatedly? That could be from dirty contacts on the cable or phone’s charge port.

    To clean mine, I put my cord in the dishwasher (energy save mode), didn’t quite work. Then I put the brick thru a cycle…still no help. Maybe it’s the phone that’s dirty??? Thanks in advance

    • @scottschiller
      @scottschiller  ปีที่แล้ว

      Interesting. I would recommend avoiding the dishwasher for both power cable and power supply, especially the power supply which has more electrical components that could be damaged by water and heat.
      My recommendation is to try a different charger or USB power source, then try swapping the cable. It’s likely that one or the other are bad, but not both.

      Be careful not to bend the cable too much, or put metal things on any exposed portions if inner wiring is visible. If the cable starts to get hot around the area of damage, stop using and replace it.

    • @scottschiller
      @scottschiller  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You can try an initial clean with a drop or two of water, and an old toothbrush or a soft cloth. The idea is to get any dirt or sticky gunk off first. Then try a bit of vinegar to help with corrosion.

      Excellent, great to hear. Sometimes, the initial cleaning will fix the cable. Otherwise, vinegar is the next thing to try if the cable pins seem to be corroded.

      I don’t recommend apple cider vinegar because it may have sugars etc., which may make your connection worse. Look for “white”, or “5%” vinegar in your grocery store; same stuff, sometimes different names. 5% is the diluted strength.

      Barely any is needed, a drop or two will saturate a Q-tip without issue. You don’t need it dripping wet, for example.

      @scottschiller  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Pins run from left to right in descending order on the side facing you, 8 to 1 - so pin 5 should be fourth from the left.
      I believe the lightning port only has contacts on the upper side.

      It shouldn’t hurt to try, although I would just rinse it rather than soak the connector. You can try using an eraser on the contacts, as well.
