iPhone 14 — sensor array 0x700000: Charging port + wireless coil + proximity sensor

High confidenceVerified sourceSMC: silent sensor

On the iPhone 14, 0x700000 means: Charging port + wireless coil + proximity sensor.

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, all three mandatory sensors of the iPhone 14 / 14 Plus are missing at once. 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 (charging port, wireless coil, front sensors); a simultaneous failure of all three points to corrosion or a common logic board fault.
