Hello everybody, so I have an Ipad Air 2 wifi that suddenly stopped working. The device didn’t fall or get damaged with water. The only problem it had was not charging when using other cables than the one that came with it(I have 2 original lightning cabels and a hdmi adapter, I have no problem using them on my IPhone 6 however with the Ipad they do their connecting function but the battery doesn’t get charged). So the device does not show any reaction to charging and doesn’t connect to any Pc/Mac. It also refuse the reset. The only thing that happens is the right side gets warm when I connect it with the charger. Apple’s employees were not helpful and only suggested to replace the Ipad with a new one for 340€. My question is did this problem happen to any one before? What can be the cause and is there any solution.
If the Lightning cables work on other devices but not your iPad, then it’s safe to say that you have a problem within your iPad. It could be just the Lightning port or it could be the charge circuit on the logic board. You could follow this guide to open your device a take a look-see but both of these potential repairs will require micro-soldering so it’s not a DIY repair.
It appears that the problem is either a battery issue, a dock connecter issue or it could be a circuit board issue. If it is the battery or dock connecter, it should be replaced but if its a circuit board issue, then you would have to either get a professional to revive your circuit board or get a new iPad
