iPhone 5 Volume, Power, and Mute button fix in 6 Minutes!

LET ME KNOW IF THESE LINKS STOP WORKING. Or if you need any other parts.

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.

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

[samlugo]

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!!!!

two and a half hours later i finaly replaced the power button flex cable and the battery of my i5. thanks a lot!

[kennethmkline]

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!

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!

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.

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

one of the best iphone repair videos on youtube

[djordjesajlovic]

Thanks man, you made my day. Now my power button works like charm...

Greetings from Sarajevo ;)

p.s. For all those people who complain, just try harder, until you make it work :D

The hardest part of this job is after those 5:56 minutes, and actually the hardest thing to repair in an Iphone 5. Thank you.

[ShinobiMaster]

Your the only vid on youtube that showed how to removed the ribbon cable from the bracket THANK a bunch 

[cmac]

Excellent Video. Good job.... I had Zero issues doing this repair by watching this. Thanks!!

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!!

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.

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

[robertbrnjac]

First time ever opening up my iPhone 5 to fix this problem.  Directions worked like a charm.  Very much appreciated.

Lol I'm watching in 2019 and Zacks voice sounds so much more different

[FunTastic]

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!

[NikolasSMK]

Great video! Would be also useful to see how to put it back together.

[joehdrk]

Thanks for the video post. I just repaired my iPhones power button. Not an easy fix to replace that flex cable but your video definitely helped.
