I swapped a screen and housing on a XR and now Apple Pay isn’t working.
All of the small parts were transferred over, but part of the charging coil tore so that had to be replaced. The coil and the screen are the only new parts.
Which part of the phone makes Apple Pay work, and why would it not be working? Thanks in advance for any insight!
Is this a good question?

You can do one thing that you can update the Apple Pay by which it can work

Thank you for replying. What do you mean by update the Apple Pay? Delete the card and re-add it?

Hi I have the same problem, have you found out what has caused it and how to fix it.

I have also heard that the nfc might be located between the metal and glass of the back housing so I don't know if changing the housing to a third party housing may have caused it
Hey Colin! I ended up taking it apart again to add a new charge coil (which supposedly has the NFC as well). But didn't end up replacing the coil, as it arrived incomplete.
Anyway, when I reassembled everything, the Apple Pay ended up working.
I think the NFC antenna is associated with the cable from the charge coil that connects to the left frame of the phone, if that makes sense.
Are you doing a repair, or did Apple Pay just stop working?
Yeah I was doing a housing replacement and the coil was broken, how hard is it to replace the coil I understand it requires micro soldering which I haven't done before but can learn
I would think it's easier to just replace the whole coil. Just make sure the coil already has the connector attached.
