      2. iPad charger.
      3. Lightning cable.
      4. iPad’s charging port.

we will provide some items to recognize which piece doesn’t work well and the way to solve the problem.

 

Hard Reset Your iPad

when your iPad is not charging you should try a hard reset. To do this you should simply press and hold the Home button and the power button at the same time until, the Apple logo flash appear on the center of the screen. Sometimes it’s necessary to hold both buttons for 20 – 30 seconds.
It seems helpful because, your iPad’s software probably has completely crashed, turning the display entirely black. If this is the case for your iPad, a hard reset would fix the software crash for some time.

Scan Your iPad Charger

When the software of your iPad is showing fluctuations in power from the using charger, it can be the main problem. So, Your iPad’s software sees the power fluctuations as a safety risk, as a result, it is natural to stop your iPad from charging altogether.
In this regard, please charge your iPad with multiple different chargers like every USB port on your laptop and the wall charger that came with your iPad when you bought it.
When you surely understand that your iPad is charging with some chargers, but not others, then you’ve identified that your iPad charger is the exact problem so you should be happy because your iPad is okay. If your iPad is not charging with any kinds of charger that you try, lets go onto the next step with your Lightning cable.

Check Your Charging Cable

Next step is, examine carefully the Lightning cable that you’re using to try and charge your iPad. Can you see any fraying or discoloration on the Lightning connector or wire itself? If so, it’s time to change it with new Lightning cable.
For a second, its necessary to tell you some of important dangers of using Lightning cables that aren’t MFi-certified. These are the types of cables you’d find at your local store or gas station. These cables generally aren’t MFi-certified, which means they have conformed to Apple’s standards of a high-quality Lightning cable.
As a result, they sometimes overheat and will damage the internal components of your iPad. You’ll know a cable is damaged or not MFi-certified when your iPhone, iPad, or iPod says “This Accessory May Not Be Supported” after you plug it in.

Clean Your iPad’s Charging Port

After checking above items completely, now it’s time to check inside your iPad. Turn on a flashlight and closely check your iPad’s charging port. We want to clean up any dirt, lint, gunk, or other debris that simply prevent your Lightning cable from making a pure connection to your iPad’s charging port.
There are eight tiny pins on the inside of your iPad’s Lightning port that make a connection to your Lightning cable during the charging process. If any of these pins are concealed by debris, it may not be able to form a connection with your Lightning cable.
When you don’t see a ton of debris in your Lightning port, but in any case, we advise you seriously clean it out. Because every little of dust that you may can’t see are the most important charging problem.

How can I remove My iPad’s Charging Port from all dust?

Our suggestion is, using an anti-static brush to clean the Lightning port of an iPhone, iPad, or iPod. As you probably know anti-static brushes don’t give off electric charges, while you’re cleaning it. Or you can gently brush out what’s inside the port, then try charging your iPad once again. You will be surprised by how much debris comes out!
