How to approach it

The charging port identifies each accessory by its ID lines (ACC_ID) and its detection line, and can power it from its own 3.3 V output that the PMU enables. The USB control chip ({role:usb}) decides whether the accessory is valid. The most common cause is a dirty or damaged port, especially after a connector repair; before measuring, try another cable and another accessory.
