iPhone 14 Pro Max — sensor array 0x1c0000: Charging port + power button + front sensors
Medium confidenceVerified sourceSMC: silent sensor
On the iPhone 14 Pro Max, 0x1c0000 means: Charging port + power button + front sensors.
What does this code mean?
SMC “BSC failure” panic: the system management controller (built into the SoC) periodically waits for a response from each mandatory sensor; here, three sensors are missing: charging port, power button and proximity. With no response, it forces a restart, which repeats roughly every 3 minutes (≈180 s) as long as the sensor stays silent.
Which part to test first?
Check all three flexes; a simultaneous failure points to corrosion or a common logic board problem.
