Introduction
Use this guide to remove or replace the Lightning connector assembly for the iPhone SE 2022. This assembly includes the lower microphones, an antenna converter cable, and the Lightning connector. If you've tried cleaning the lightning port to no avail, replacing the Lightning connector can solve charging and connectivity issues.
This guide was performed on the A2783 (international) model.
If you do not replace the adhesive seals when reassembling, your device will function normally, but will most likely lose its water protection.
You’ll need replacement adhesive to reattach components when reassembling the device.
