You might have some dirt inside the lightning port. First step would be to try cleaning it being careful not to cause damage to pins inside..you’d need either fine tweezers or something alike, e.g. a wooden toothpick. A very small cut of microfiber cloth damped in alcohol may help with cleaning. After that, check everything inside is clean and shiny and try your cable again.
