Genuine Apple power button flex for iPhone 16 Pro Max
Restore the side-button connection in an iPhone 16 Pro Max with this genuine Apple PULL-A power button flex cable. This internal replacement part is intended for a device with a torn, damaged or unresponsive power-button flex after the fault has been properly diagnosed. It is the flex assembly only, supplied for technicians and experienced repairers who need a model-specific component for an iPhone 16 Pro Max repair.
PULL-A means the component has been carefully removed from an original Apple iPhone and graded for reuse. It is not a newly manufactured aftermarket copy and should not be described as brand new. Choosing a genuine pulled component can be useful when original fit, connector layout and switch response are important, while also giving a serviceable original part a second life.

Compatibility
This iPhone 16 Pro Max power button flex cable is compatible only with the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max introduced in 2024. Apple identifies the applicable regional model numbers as A3084, A3295, A3296 and A3297. Check the model number and compare the original flex, connector position and mounting points before ordering. Similar-looking parts for the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus or iPhone 16 Pro are not interchangeable with this iPhone 16 Pro Max component.
Model number alone does not diagnose a fault. A power button that feels stiff, does not click, responds intermittently or fails to trigger sleep, wake or power functions can have several causes. These include a damaged external button, misaligned bracket, torn flex cable, contaminated contact, frame damage, connector damage or a board-level fault. Confirm the failed component before installation to avoid replacing a working part.
What this replacement part is for
The power button flex is an internal ribbon cable that carries the side-button input to the phone. It may be required after impact damage, liquid exposure, a housing replacement, accidental tearing during another repair or wear around the button-contact area. This part is intended to replace the internal power-button flex when testing shows that the original flex is the cause of the problem.
This listing is not for the volume-button flex, Action-button flex, Camera Control assembly, wireless charging coil, charging-port flex, Bluetooth antenna, Wi-Fi antenna or an external metal button. Those components perform different functions and may look similar in photographs. Confirm that you need the iPhone 16 Pro Max power button flex cable shown before purchasing.
PULL-A condition explained
A PULL-A component is a genuine Apple part recovered from an original device and assessed as a high-grade reusable component. Minor signs of prior fitment, adhesive residue or handling can be present because the part is removed rather than newly manufactured. These cosmetic signs do not change the intended function of the flex. Product photographs are representative, and small visual differences may occur between production batches or donor devices.
Handle the cable only by safe edges and avoid folding, stretching, puncturing or contaminating the contacts. Flex cables are delicate. Damage caused during unpacking, test fitting or installation is not a defect in the supplied component.
Before ordering
- Confirm that the device is an iPhone 16 Pro Max, not another iPhone 16 model.
- Verify model number A3084, A3295, A3296 or A3297 where possible.
- Inspect and diagnose the original power-button flex and related connector.
- Compare the product images with the part removed from the device.
- Check whether any bracket, gasket, adhesive or external button must be transferred or sourced separately.
- Review the warranty conditions before installing the part.
If you are unsure which component has failed, ask a qualified repair technician to diagnose the phone before ordering. JPC Mobile can help identify the correct listing from clear photos and device details, but compatibility advice is not a substitute for hands-on fault testing.
Installation and testing
Installation requires the iPhone to be opened and internal components to be disconnected. The battery should be isolated before the flex is removed or connected. Correct tools, screw organisation, static-control practices and careful cable routing are essential. Excessive heat, pressure, sharp folds, trapped cables or incorrect screw placement can damage the replacement part or other components.
Test the replacement flex before final reassembly where the repair procedure allows. Confirm reliable side-button response across repeated presses, sleep and wake behaviour, and normal power-menu operation. Also verify that surrounding components were not disturbed during the repair. Do not permanently secure the device until the tested result is satisfactory.
Opening the phone can affect its original water- and dust-resistance. New seals and correct reassembly practices can reduce risk but do not guarantee restoration of the factory rating. JPC Mobile does not represent that a repaired device will retain its original ingress-protection rating.
What is included
The package contains one iPhone 16 Pro Max power button flex cable in PULL-A condition. No phone, installation labour, external side-button cap, bracket, screws, adhesive, waterproof seal or repair tools are included unless expressly shown and stated as included. This is a part-only product; the advertised price is not a repair-service price.

Warranty and Australian Consumer Law
This product includes a 12-month limited product warranty for covered functional defects.
