Tested replacement built for repair benches. This infrared FPC flex cable is designed for the iPhone XS Max and carries signal from the front-facing infrared components that handle Face ID tasks. When that ribbon fails, features tied to the front sensors stop working, and a fresh cable brings them back.
What You’re Getting
Each unit is a single infrared FPC flex cable for the iPhone XS Max. Before it leaves our shelves, every cable is checked for condition, so you receive a part that is ready to fit rather than one that needs guesswork.
Compatibility
This cable is listed specifically for the iPhone XS Max. Confirm your handset model before ordering, since the flex layout differs across the XS, XS Max and nearby iPhone generations.
Installation Notes
Work in a clean space and wear an ESD strap so static doesn’t damage the sensors. Take your time lifting connectors, and never bend the flex cable past 90 degrees, or the traces may crack. Testing the phone before reassembly saves you from reopening the device. If you’re unsure, a trained technician is the safer choice.
