Product Description
If your iPhone 7 Plus (A1661, A1784, A1785) no longer buzzes for calls or messages, a failed Taptic engine is one cause to consider. This Taptic vibrator motor is listed to restore vibration alerts and haptic feedback on that model, as a replacement for a faulty or silent motor.
It is an internal part, so the phone has to be opened with heat and careful prising. Test the motor before the iPhone 7 Plus is sealed again, and take care with the flex, which tears easily.

What does the iPhone 7 Plus Taptic motor restore?
