iPod Click Wheel Charging Port Repair

iPod Click Wheel Charging Port Replacement A1509 $39

If the charging port on your iPod Click-Wheel has become damaged, this repair will fix the issue.  

Very Few shops perform this repair as parts are no longer available but we have found a safe alternative port.

Our part is not a perfect fit but it will allow you to sync and charge your iPod Click Wheel as it was intended.  Slight modication to the charge port hole, to allow the cable to fit in.  You will not have issues with charging or syncing or with fit of cable, and no potential issue of port coming loose.  

If You DO NOT See physical Trauma to the port

If you do not see any damage to the charging port, we can't repair, physical trauma to port must be present.

Common issues with charging ports requiring replacement

• charging port shows signs of damage, physical trauma to the pins
• pins in charging port show signs of being pushed in

REQUIREMENTS BEFORE YOU PURCHASE REPAIR for your ipod Classic Charging Port Issue or problem

• You must be original owner, did not buy this 2nd hand.  It is very easy to place a screwdriver into charge port and sell, telling the buyer that it just needs a new charge port!  You must have 1st hand knowledge that it was working prior to charge port damage.  I will test when I receive, if it is found that it does not work when powered on, a $15 diagnostic fee applies for the time spent on testing device (these are very difficult devices to open).  
• You must see physical trauma to charge port, an absolute must.  If we receive and you want us to open device up to check the pins on the inside, $15 diagnostic fee applies.  This is of course, if the port on the outside looks good.  It is rare for a port to look good on the outside and have shorts on the inside.  That is usually a result of moisture exposure if shorts exist. 
• No moisture exposed devices accepted.  If we open device and there are signs of water exposure, we must return device.  Moisture esposed devices only get worse once we disconnect cables.  The corrosion present on cables may be the only thing allowing the iPod to partially function.  Once that corrosion link is broken, there are at times, no way to get that link back.  Corrosion melts connections!

15 Month Warranty against defects.

You will not be able to tell we opened device, will look and function just as when you sent it in.  Professionally repaired, not one warranty request since we have been repairing them!
