Is it possible to repair the usb-c port?

Hello,

I recently splashed a bit of ocean water on my phone while on vacation. it didn't seem like much at the time, but I may have caused some damage to the usb-c port.

After drying it off, I received the "moisture detected" notification when attempting to charge it. When I got home, I left in some rice overnight, and it will now charge, but only when plugged into a computer or lower wattage charger.

It's been about a week, and it still won't fast-charge, nor do my audio adapters work anymore (especially annoying, since this phone lacks a headphone jack).

I have cleaned the port using a compressed air and a small swab with a bit of isopropyl alcohol.

The phone is operating normally otherwise.

So am I screwed? Or, is it possible to repair the port?

Hi Vince,

Actually, you're one of the lucky group of people who have a phone where the charging port is mounted on a circuit board that's separate from the motherboard. That means the port can be repaired fairly easily with no soldering required - something that's particularly difficult with USB-C ports.

I have to give kudos to Lenovo for making their service manual public; that means you have factory specific repair procedures to go by to fix your phone. Here's the one you'll need for replacing your charging port/sub board.

The sub board replacement procedure is on page 120, but you'll need to follow the previous pages to get to it.

The part itself seems to be available practically nowhere; it's complicated by the fact that the service manual doesn't have any part number information. However, I did manage to locate a couple of places you can buy it; I'd definitely go with the first if possible since it's quite inexpensive and a brand new OEM part, while the other is used and inordinately expensive for what it is.

Of course, if you do your own search you may find more options if neither of these works for you.

HI, Does anyone know where I can buy a charging PCB? I can't find one anywhere?

Thank you for your response. "I'm still waiting for my account to be approved on Cxellparts, and on NexsusCellular I placed an order and paid, but so far I haven't even received a tracking number. It kind of looks like a scam. Do you maybe have any other links, or maybe a PCB from another model that fits ?
