Introduction
Before rushing out to replace your iPhone SE Lightning Connector, try this simple cleaning option.
My iPhone SE Lightning Connector had been in for repair under warranty 3 times and clearly had never been replaced. During the "replacement" of my Lightning Connector, I could see the phone had never been opened.
Unfortunately, the "replacement" Lightning Connector didn’t work. So, thinking that I had nothing to lose, I set about trying to fix it and it worked!

Using the fine tweezers, carefully remove the build up of fluff and other debris from inside the Lightning Connector. I was really shocked how much was in there.

After having cleared out the inside of the Lightning Connector, carefully apply contact cleaner. It may not be a bad idea to mask off the rest of the phone before doing this. My Lightning Connector had been removed from the phone so it wasn't a problem I had to deal with.

When the contact cleaner has dried, you're ready to go.
