Details

Pressing the side button on your iPhone 17 and nothing happens? You raise the phone to wake it instead, but locking it, using Siri or paying with Apple Pay now takes several tries. If it's not the case and a restart doesn't help, the thin flex behind the button may have been damaged.

This aftermarket power button flex cable fits the iPhone 17 and replaces the switch and cable behind the side button.

What causes it

A drop on that edge is the most common reason, followed by liquid getting in and the slow wear of thousands of presses. Sometimes an earlier repair leaves the cable nicked. You might notice the button only working when pressed hard, working one day and not the next, or doing nothing at all.

AssistiveTouch in Accessibility settings gives you an on-screen button for locking and screenshots until the repair is done. Test without the case too, in case it's pressing on the button.

Replacing the flex means opening the phone, so a repair shop is a sensible choice if you haven't done it before. When it's fixed, a single press wakes your iPhone again.
