iPhone Touch Not Working Repair in South Africa

Is your iPhone screen not responding to touch, even though it lights up? Whether it’s completely unresponsive, randomly freezing, or only working in certain areas, touch issues are often hardware-related and require skilled microsoldering. At ARSA Repair Services, we specialize in repairing stubborn iPhone touch faults that most shops avoid.

Common Symptoms of iPhone Touch Issues

  • Screen lights up but does not respond to finger taps

  • Touch only works in some areas (e.g. top or bottom)

  • Ghost touch: phone acts on its own

  • Delayed or lagging response

  • iPhone touch stops working after drop or screen replacement

If a screen replacement hasn’t helped, the problem is likely on the logic board.

What Causes iPhone Touch to Stop Working?

  • Faulty Touch ICs (especially in iPhone 6 Plus — “Touch Disease”)

  • Broken solder joints under Meson or Cumulus IC

  • Damaged digitizer connector on motherboard

  • Improper screen replacement — causing ESD damage

  • Water or drop damage — cracking board traces

  • Defective aftermarket screens

  • Torn flex cables or connector pins

Newer models (iPhone X and up) may have touch-related faults in the screen itself, but motherboard failures are still common.

Our Touch Repair Process

  1. Confirm issue using test display

  2. Run full diagnostics on digitizer lines and ICs

  3. Microsoldering: reflow or replace Meson/Cumulus IC (U2402/U2401)

  4. Repair torn pads or broken traces under microscope

  5. Test with a working screen for responsiveness

  6. Final assembly and stress test

We don’t just change screens — we fix the underlying cause at the board level.
