Solved 2023 How To Fix Turn On Apple iPad Air Dead Red Battery Icon Symbol Not working Charging

I hope the following video & instructions will help you get your ipad back up and running and save yourselves a lot of money, feel free to donate or just enough to buy me a drink of coffee :) and please subscribe, IM TRYING TO ACHIEVE 1000 Subscribers 🤪

I'm not getting any money as I have not hit YouTube target to starting earning from ads. :)

I bought an iPad Air from eBay as faulty. The ipad only showed the battery symbol with a charging connection symbol

As i plugged in the lightning cable, the lightning charging symbol disappeared but only left the battery symbol,

so to me the charging port is fine, i left it to charge for 2 hours. after 2 hours i was still getting the battery symbol and not turning on the iPad and wouldn't charge or no signs of life

SO THIS TECHNIQUE will show you how to jump start the iPad from a dead battery symbol.

1. get hairdryer
2. turn ipad on its front , so the back is facing you
3. heat the back for 2/3 minutes
4. connect the lightning charging cable to the ipad
5. should turn on to apple logo

I hope this has helped you get your ipad back up and running , feel free or not :) to donate anything or just enough to buy me a drink :)

I think the science behind all of this is basically when you heat up the back of the iPad, something in the battery sort of triggers something to let it charge, I think there might be a shut-off mechanism or something I'm not sure but hopefully some of you guys might understand put it in the comments below.

if this has helped you :) Please support me by subscribing, liking this video and feel free to comment

This iPad needed a new battery as soon as I jump started it, it went from 37% to 50% down to 2% up to 100% so to me this needed a new battery.

please support and subscribe to me as I will put some more videos on how to fix Apple products or any other DIY projects :)

This is astonishing! Didn't work the first time I tried, but all these comments got me to try again and I got it a bit hotter, for longer and then voila! The estimate for taking it to the Apple store for repairs was over $656!!!! Instead it's WORKING! Thank you HOW 2UK!

I've been trying to raise my iPad Air from death for almost a month, nothing was helping to resurrect it, with all other youtube videos there, bammmm after watching your video, applying hairdryer on its head bammmm, it came back to life " Hallelujah ", thanks a lot my dear for your efforts, God bless you

[Stygia]

Holy cow!! It actually worked! I was scared to apply heat because I didn't want to warp or expand any of the innards. But two minutes did the trick! Seriously saved me, thank you so much!

[Dwatalla]

Thank you so much! I was skeptical but it worked. I am very thankful to have my iPad working again. Enjoy the coffee I sent you deserve it. Cheers

When I first tried this, I thought it didn't work and I was like oh well. However, I left my IPAD on the charger for about 15 minutes while I was cooking and when I came back it started working!!! It just took a bit longer for me but it worked. This video is a lifesaver!!

[dennisreed]

I just tried this, and it worked as stated. I worked the hair dryer over the back of the iPad for 3 minutes, let it cool down and it came right up. Thanks for the great tip.

[emberfall]

I left my old iPad on my vent for about 20 minutes and only after 3 minutes of charging it, it worked! Real life saver thank you!

[LGRock]

I was going to send this into a ipad service I have confidence in for $99.00 USD. You saved me a bundle! I sent you a thank you paypal to your paypal link in this video. Everyone else please send this great guy a paypal thank you if your non charging ipad was resolved with this cool video! Feeling grateful! Thank you Alfonso!

I am flabbergasted. I thought for sure this was an elaborate troll, but I just resurrected my son's dead ipad with a hair dryer. Spent my whole life in the technical field so nothing should surprise me by now but I am in love with the idea of keeping a hair dryer in my tech kit for "just in case". Kudos to you my friend!

[samsum]

I did not believe it. It works. It turned on my iPad air. My son used the heat from the old Nexus 6 phone (played some graphic game like brawl star that made the phone a little warm). Now put the old warm phone on top of the ipad for a few(5) minutes, while charging the ipad, and it actually turning on the ipad. Thank you.

[jessalynagris]

Thank you so much! It worked! I’ve been charging my daughter's iPad for 24hrs. I even changed the charger and outlet. Then came across your video and it works. This is a big help. Thank you!💯

[mateusberbick]

I tried 4 or 5 times heating it up (around 3 min each).... surface got very hot, not able to keep touching hand on it.
Even that.... not able to move further than "charging symbol", stillnot able to turn on with this proposed method.
In my case I'm trying to reboot it to restore (system crashed).
Any suggestion? I didnt want to send it directly to repair shop.

[blobba]

hello, so do you recommend changing the battery if my ipad does this?

[Fatimayurr]

Me: mom I need the hair dryer
Mom:why?
iPad: 1%
Me:NOW

[Captain_AAhab]

I’ll be damned. Worked on the first try. This should be the top search result! Thanks so much!!

[foxeh]

Thank you so much! At first when I did this it didn't work, but when I went to watch YouTube on my laptop for about 20 minutes and suddenly it woke up from the dead!

[wadeplante]

just wondering after this tip.. any issues after? or is this a one time hack to buy enough time to do a backup of data.. then down the road it might repeat etc.. then eventually get a new one?

[dcarpenay]

Thanks for the video. Just to add, I had the same issue this morning. My ipad was in the garage while cold outside. My iPad would not charge. I brought it to work, change chargers, but still nothing. While plugged up, I was sitting here and noticed it started ti charge. In reference to you method, it seems the temperature affected the charging of the battery. Sitting on my desk, it was allowed time to warm up.

[yamamamama]

Do you have to continuously heat it up to charge ? Or is it a one time hack and it works fine again?

[juliovasquez]

I cannot believe this actually worked. Thank you so much. My iPad air 2 has risen from the dead after 4 years.
