Hi everyone, I’ve just completed a housing replacement on an iPhone XR and upon testing found that the taptic engine and the loudspeaker (Earpiece working fine) are not working. After rechecking connections and testing I found the same problem with the device. My immediate thought was that I’d damaged the charging port however, the device was still charging with that same charging port just fine. Before I order the new charging port I just wanted to ask here to see if other people also believe the issue is the charging port. Thank you, Tom
Try double-checking the connection on the loud speaker and taptic engine. If that doesn’t work, see if the bottom microphone will work. If the bottom mic doesn’t work, it is most likely a charging port issue. If you replace the charging port yet it still does not work, and IOS update might be needed. Lastly, if that doesn’t work, try backing up and restoring the iPhone. If still, the vibration doesn’t work it might be a motherboard issue. I know a few places to send it if you want that issue fixed, just let me know and I would be happy to help. I hope this helps!
