• Physical Damage: Impact, rough handling or damaged trim during previous repairs can crack the socket housing or break solder joints.
• Infotainment Wiring Issues: If the USB is used for data, a problem in the infotainment wiring or module can appear as a socket failure.

• Inspect and clean the mating connector pins before fitting the new socket to improve reliability.
• Check the vehicle’s related fuses and ground connections as part of troubleshooting.
