IPod pinout. How to fix a wire from charging an iPhone

Of course, Apple has always been distinguished by the high cost of its equipment in the market and not the best quality of its cables. Chinese replicas of wires from Apple are even worse quality, and sometimes can be dangerous for users of mobile devices. Yes, and replacement with repair will cost "a pretty penny," so today we will tell you how to fix the wire from charging iPhone.

How to repair the cable "apple" device?

Have you broken the cord from your phone's charger? Do not rush to contact the service center or choose a new one. Sometimes the situation can be saved with the help of improvised materials and hands.

We proceed to repair. We will need the most common heat shrinkable tube, having a suitable diameter. This thing can be found in any economic or construction shop with electrical goods in the range.

And here is the way how to fix the cord from iPhone 5 and another version:

• We cut a piece of tube with the necessary dimensions.
• Then gently put the "component" on the connector of the device and just fix it with your efforts or with the help of an electrical tape.
• Now it is necessary to heat up the resulting design over the plate hob, lighter or low-power gas burner.

Important! Do not use high temperatures for handling and do not hold the wire over an open flame. Use hot air rising above the flame.

• After the procedure you will receive a ready-made strong cable.

Layfak

Still puzzled by the question, how to fix the cord from iPhone 5? We will answer your question with one more method of repair. You only need an iron spring, the diameter of which allows you to put it on the wire.

Important! Such springs can be found by disassembling a Chinese lighter or a non-working clock

Let's go to the very essence: take the spring and thread it along the cable exactly in the place where the defect was found.

Important! This method is relevant only for those cases if the damage consists in violation of the integrity of the cable insulation.

Also, nobody prevents you from replacing the spring with adhesive tape, which can be purchased at any hardware store and in many supermarkets. We are looking for a place where the cable is torn, then rewind all this "disgrace" with an electrical tape in a couple of layers.

If everything is clear with isolation, then with the replacement of the lightning-cable, things are more complicated.

Replacement of the lightning cable

It is not recommended to repair the cord yourself, because by your actions, without the proper knowledge base, you can only worsen the situation and will be forced to seek help from a service center. If nevertheless are aimed to do this, here is a detailed instruction for carrying out the replacement of the Iphone wire:

1. First, you need to do the "disassembly" of the cable. Cut the case, remove the insulation and carefully remove the lightning itself. Do not throw out the plastic, it's still useful.
2. Remove the metal parts from the device, remove the silicone from its surface.
3. Inside the plug you must find the chip and with special care to remove the adhesive from it.
4. Next, the contacts should be soldered with solder.
5. When we have coped with the solder, we can proceed to pinout. Detailed instructions for conducting pinouts are recommended to be found on the Internet.
6. Now you can do the serial assembly of the cable, checking it in advance for efficiency.

If you avoided short-circuits and other amateurish problems, you can enjoy a working device that has been repaired with your own hands.

Purchase of modernization

Now you know exactly how to repair the iPhone 5 cable. Why not warn yourself against further breakdowns? You can extend the life of the device with the help of "modernization" of the wire. If the "hand-maid" approach, in which we used a spring, is not to your liking, then nobody prevents you from finding in the store or ordering via the Internet special devices that preserve the integrity of the cables.

There are special plastic "cases" for the wires, which are worn on those wiring places that suffer most during operation. In other words - these devices will help to protect the cord from breakages in the places of its bends.

Following these instructions, you will save yourself from the need for an untimely replacement of the device and will be able to operate it for more than one year. But if you bought a cable, but do not want to do it, you can follow the following tips:

• Do not twist the wires and fold them several times. Such actions lead to rapid wear at the points of bending of the device.
• Try to find on the Internet information on the "preparation" of the workplace. In the network, you can find a lot of useful videos that demonstrate a variety of docking stations, collected personally, and in the store the docking station will not be banned.
• Avoid any interactions of such devices with water and other substances that can disable the cable.

Now you know how to use the original Apple products and do not overpay for maintenance of accessories. Good luck!

I hate it when there are a lot of wires, chargers and other stuff that sticks in the cigarette lighter in the car. Just fed up every time to poke wires into the apple-tree, from below charging, from above the output from the headphones to the radio, although I know for sure that the interface connector has a normal line-out! Buying a company cable for a dohera of money is not our credo, especially when your hands are growing from where you need it!
In general, gathered with the spirit, and rushed!
So in order:
1-bought dual USB socket
2-I found the pinout of the interface connector. Who is interesting here? pinouts.ru/PortableDevices/ipod.shtml
3-razrikonil Chinese charger, or rather the plug itself, the benefit of collapsible was :) Inside okromya crooked soldered resistor and 2 wires naturally nothing more nebylo.
I start to plug in the pinout (link above) and understand that I do not have enough on the connector at least 3 contacts to remove the ruler. I find an old dead charger, I smoke a chicken with a plug, I get contacts, and with some improvements I push them into a new place of residence :)
I solder the posting with the minijack for checking, I catch the jack on the active speakers, the other end - in the apple. We start the player, and oh miracle, the sound comes from the built-in dnamik :) :) :) In short, it does not work as it should be a pancake. :)
Digging further, and we understand that the device should be made to understand that it has been connected to it. We go to the link. . .
-Bad, do not want to work! Che do something? :(
-Chuwachek, but you did not forget 21 contacts through a 68-ohm rezuk on weight (16 contact) to hang? :)
We do Che said, we check, when connecting the connector, the iPhone is already chopping off its speaker, but it does not give a nitsche to the line. . .
-Hello is the link! Long time no see! Che as she can finally? :) :) :)
-Sam Nitsche, but you're hanging out all fucking with your wires huh? Well Duc you 11 contact something on the weight drop, and will be the joy! :)
And the joy came! :) In a state of extremely pleased with an elephant, I take a wire from a dead USB mouse, and start it with the apple plug connector.
Here is the pinout of the interface and yusba

In general, this is the kind of cable :)

But we, as Chinese pioneers, are not looking for easy ways, and thought poured into the brain, but what else would the switch of the charging do not cram in with the LED? For how can I feed him if he is full? :)
After a while, it appeared to the light :)

Well, about the installation of USB jacks in the panel there is nothing special to talk about, cut out a hole, stuck it, filled epoxy, sconectile power wires and line output. As a power source used stuffing from the native charger navigator, gives 5 volts at a current of 1000 mA, just what you need and apple and navigator.
Here's the result :)

Today we will talk about the wires of the iPhone with a thin Lightning-connector. As you know, they serve not always long and happily. First of all, these wires have poor insulation. And when it comes to complete worthlessness in the fold, the whole wire ends. Unfortunately, the company's devices from Cupertino have built-in protection against the use of non-original accessories (and we will deal with it in one of the following materials). Therefore, to save the wire is the main task. The key word in this article is the so-called "heat shrinkage".

Unfortunately, I'm not an iOS fan, so I did not have the original (and even more spoiled) cable for charging and transferring data. In the nearest store there was a more useful universal USB cable with three connectors: microUSB and a pair of Lightning-connectors of the old and new version. The cable is full, but ...

... it is not difficult to spoil it. Insulation on a fake cable is very similar in properties to the insulation of the original. So make a couple of cuts and simulate the usual damage to the cable is not difficult.

And now the repair has come. To do this, we will use the most common heat shrinkable tubing of a suitable diameter. By the way, this thing is sold in any hardware stores, where they sell electronic equipment, among others. You just need to tell the seller the word "heat shrink".

For those who do not know: heat shrinkable tubing  is a thin-walled plastic tube with an internal diameter of 1 to 110 mm for insulation of wires and other electrical pieces. When heated (the required temperature is from 70 to 110 degrees), the tube is compressed approximately twice. After heating, the heat shrink tube completely repeats all the bends of the original wire. It sits as tightly as possible without a rupture - if you choose a diameter, it's almost dead.

In this case, I got a hand like this, with a diameter of 6 mm (pulling it onto the plug is problematic, but with a larger size it will be a more flimsy design).

Cut off a piece of tube of the necessary length (with the calculation from the beginning of the wire and to the edge of the insulation damage, with a margin of a centimeter). Gently we put the tube on the connector, fix it with hands or tape.

After warming over any hot object: a hotplate of an electric or gas stove, a lighter, a gas burner. Be careful: heat-shrinkable material, like wire, does not tolerate high temperatures and, especially, open fire. There is enough hot air rising above the flame. On the output we get a restored cable.

The manual is written based on one curious clip, in the comments under which it was found out that the population of Russia is either unfamiliar with heat shrinkage, or did not intend to apply it not for its intended purpose.

In the following publications, we will learn to remove the display from the phone to get to the battery, and to dry the drowned phone. If you want to see the material on another topic of interest to you, write in the comments.
