This video will teach you everything you need to know about replacing the iPhone 5 volume button flex cable. The flex cable also controls the mute button, the power button, and has 2 little connectors for the vibrating motor as well. So it is a pretty important little guy. If any one of those buttons stop working you can fix it with just one new cable. The whole operation (with the help of this video) should only take 45 minutes or so.
The most important thing is to KEEP YOUR SCREWS ORGANIZED. I cannot stress that enough. Second most important thing is to be very very gentle prying up the screen.

love your videos!!! I love how clear and simple you make them. you use arrows, skip the unscrewing and have good camera angles!! I absolutely want to come back to your chapel for all repairs!!!!

Recently watched your video on how to change iphone 6 housing. Looked pretty complicated but was actually pretty straightforward and took hardly any time at all

@cameronketch2363 9 лет назад

Just replaced the ribbon cable and battery. It took about 2 hrs to complete (first time) but everything works! Thank you so much for your videos!

@kennethmkline23 5 лет назад

I couldn't help but notice that this video wasn't in the same order that you actually took it apart in. Still, knowing what I could and couldn't take apart or should and shouldn't take apart really help. Thanks a lot!

@desmond5593 2 года назад

Thank you so much for making this video. It's clear, straight to the point and very informative. love it

@codyculp4950 6 лет назад

Pretty straightforward fix. Thank you Jerry

Dude thank you for growing your channel. Inspiration to those that need it like myself

@FunTastic36912 8 лет назад

Fantastic video, thank you! It all worked pretty well, although it took me a good and patient three hours. Most parts were glued down pretty solidly. In the re-assembly I forgot that one of the cables of this cable attaches to the TOP of the motherboard, not both underneath. I kept re-assembling until one of the screws didn't quite fit, which is when I figured out I had to trace back again and pull that part out from under the freshly placed motherboard. So watch out for that (or be smarter than me ;-)). Also, the wifi connector was pretty tricky to reconnect. But really grateful for all this guidance and advice, thanks!

JerryRigEverything Hey bud I just got a housing kit and the power button included doesn't have the folding clip on it, Can i still use that button?Problem is the housing is gold and I don't wanna put a silver power button on it if I don't have to thanks

@fabriciobarros9777 7 лет назад

Great video!!

@24hourstosavethearth 6 лет назад

Thanks for the vid very helpful. It took me around 2 hours to do this, but got there in the end. I would recommend numbering each screw on a sketch and also trying each switch for operation during reassembly. A couple of things for those attempting this, the wifi antenna does not need to be removed. Secondly the pegs on the new mute switch need to be melted with a soldering iron to fix permanently to the original bracket. Thanks again for vid, it would be really helpful if you could edit the video and do a voice over for reassembly.

@acr9319 7 лет назад

Jerry it is a 'GREAT' tutorial, I strongly recommend you to continue with the same kind of format (clear & close-up camera work, arrows and walk through comments making it so easy to understand). However the ONLY reason I couldn't give you a 'BRILLIANT' instead is - soon after you used your fingers in place of tweezers. That is my only criticism (constructive) of the tutorial. Keep em going. FANTASTIC.

Great video for what i need to do for my iPhone 5. My volume and power buttons aren't responsive they just feel springy. So i assume i need to replace the flex cable but would i also need new buttons?

@mricho22 9 лет назад

Can you advise: If the home button does not work... is it the home button itself or the flex cable that should be replaced? How do these cables stop working if the phone has never been worked on? Could it be a case of something not making a connection?

This makes the GS5 repair I finished look like a cake walk. So many components....

@bobbimcgrath9187 9 лет назад

I followed the video and it took me several hours because of the small screws and the backing up the video was cumbersome to put it back together. I originally needed the power button to be fixed, replaced the battery and also changed the home button cable. Everything but the volume keys are working. The keys move and spring but they don't make the volume go up or down. There are also vertical bars at the top of the screen that become less when you turn down the brightness. I'd really like the volume keys to work. Any suggestions? Going back in for the 4th time is a possible but only if you really have a good suggestion otherwise my daughter can adjust volume on the swipe screen. Thanks for the video!!

@MrRahimhosein 9 лет назад

Apple has a free replacement program for the power/sleep/wake button. Either bot working or intermittent operation. Free replacement on phones manufactured after march 2013. Check the apple website and enter serial number and they will tell you right away if it qualifies or not

@testytest3083 9 лет назад

RSH21 i took my 2nd hand iphone 5 to the apple store for the power button recall and the genius person laughed at me cause it had some after market repairs, i dont think that dudes is qualify for the recall after he opened his iphone

@Doesyou 8 лет назад

Also be careful of cheap volume flex cables, I got one about a month or two ago and when I installed it in my phone, the volume buttons (internal) were not sticking properly to the bracket.. I could not click them properly and as a result ended up getting a new OEM cable recently and plan to replace it when my vibrator also arrives since I dropped my phone and it sounds weird now.

@connorreid8264 8 лет назад

Thanks for the video, it helps a lot. Quick question: If the lock/power button isn't working, do I need to replace the whole cable? Or is the button itself typically at fault?

@Alex251295 8 лет назад

+Connor Reid Layout parts you remove in the order you remove them then just work back though them?

@nadiahasanat9525 7 лет назад

Is the vibrator bracket necessary to have? I opened my phone up and I don't have one should I get one?

@justincox5004 8 лет назад

I replaced the flex cable bc the lock button wouldn't work but now it still doesn't work any suggestions? Also the phone says searching where the service bars usually are and usually says Verizon is this a antenna came off I put them on right I thought thank you

@koffekoffein1 3 года назад

The motherboard i understand that it won’t work if you don’t take it away but do you really have to take out the battery? It’s hard especially when it has been there a while and got super sticky.

@anonymusanon3482 5 лет назад

Rigging the iPhone mute button to physically cut off battery power (or GSM/GPS/WIFI) possible ?

@garrettmarvel 9 лет назад

installation is WAY harder than removal... plus the mute switch is attached (sonic weld?) to the bracket. once you remove it, you're screwed for relable reattachment and install.

@brianheiden6623 7 лет назад

Wow man you have done them all havent you lol. Nice man. Did look like you needed to pull the wifi off? I noticed you stuck it right back on?

@IamNeighborlee 6 лет назад

My power button wasn't working when I got it (yes, used, everything else works fine though,yes ebay),- so just wondering, - given the area around power button looks fairly solid, what could be wrong with it, whats likely to 'break' about that area/switch ? I know this phone has a high power buttom failure rate, but why , and is apple likely to fix it free given that , or forget it ,and deal>

@scotttuck 7 лет назад

i've watched 6 other tutorials on taking off the face plate including this one. But for some reason on mine, you open it and you don't see the battery or the cables at all. Its got a flat plate covering it all. I figured its probably snapped in, shouldn't be a problem. however, after trying to get it out for an hour I gave up. does any one have any ideas on how to go about getting the plate out ? I would really appreciate your help. Thanks.

@JohanLarsen1993 9 лет назад

Thank you for your help! :) Although the title is a bit misleading - reading it, I thought it would take me 6 min to fix the problem.

@junothunder88m 9 лет назад

Thank you, very nice video, question. How much is actually needed to be removed if i just want to change the power button itself. Bought a used one and they did a lowsy job fixing the button. It works, but only half of the button it seems hah. Also, vibrator is extremely weak, could it just be the motor? Thank you so much!

@JerryRigEverything 9 лет назад

Michael Mokler I have not swapped out the actual power button itself before, so i am not totally sure on that. BUT with your vibrator, it could be the motor, or just a bad connection with with the power. Make sure the little pads it sits on are clean.

@thomasbrown7171 9 лет назад

I followed the video, and it is very detailed. For reassembly, simply back up a little at a time and put it back together in reverse order. I strongly suggest that you watch it all the way through at least once. I was pausing the video, and when I got to the part about the power button bracket, I paused it before he said that you just pull the cable out behind it. I actually removed the bracket, and it was a pain to get 'right' again. By the way, some of the tool kits put a couple of plastic 'dimpled' boards in with the tools, which gives you places to put the screws as they come out. I wouldn't go by the 'six minutes' in the title. Maybe someone who has done this a number of times could, but I spent about 90 minutes, including my mishap with the power button. The mute switch was a nuisance as well. I had to use a needle to core out where the old bits of the cable were pressed in.

@JerryRigEverything 9 лет назад

Thomas Brown Oh for sure. I doubt even I could do the repair in 6 minutes. The '6 minutes' part of the title only apply to how long the video is and how long it takes to teach the process. Im glad it worked out for you though!

@xalizalizx 9 лет назад

JerryRigEverything Yeah, that '6 minutes' title is very misleading imho.

@diegofotuche 10 лет назад

good video! one question: Is that true that a bad power/lock volume cause reboots and percentage battery ? please my iphone 5 reboots every time and some times battery percentage doesn't change.

@JerryRigEverything 10 лет назад

Unless your button physically does not function, I doubt it is causing any reboots. Usually thats a software glitch. You can always try a new battery though. That might fix the percentage issue.

@diegofotuche 10 лет назад

someone fixed my power button but after that my iphone reboots every 2 or 5 minutes, and sometimes the battery percentage issue. I read someone wrote that maybe i need to change power/lock volumen flex ribbon. thank you for helping me, I appreciate it.

@JerryRigEverything 10 лет назад

If it started glitching AFTER you swapped the power button, than it might indeed be part of the issue.

@diegofotuche 10 лет назад

You right thank you a lot! I'm mega subscribed and mega like!

@karversvideos 7 лет назад

For people coming on this video 2017 or 2018 apple will actually take your phone back and replace it during that time they give you a phone to use during that time. Just go to apple.com the phones then there should be a iPhone 5 repair form to fill out.

@MultiRebal 9 лет назад

I fixed the problem i had but now my phone doesnt vibrate anymore. Is it bec i tightened the screw too much or i didnt connect it

@JerryRigEverything 9 лет назад
