iPhone SE (1st generation) — tg0b: Battery data line: resistor near the battery connector

Medium confidenceVerified sourceMissing sensor

On the iPhone SE (1st generation), tg0b means: Battery data line: resistor near the battery connector (logic board) or battery.

What does this code mean?

Watchdog panic: thermalmonitord no longer receives data from the TG0B battery sensor; with no response for ~3 minutes, iOS restarts the iPhone. On iPhone SE (1st gen.), two iFixit threads point, after a battery replacement, to a small component torn off or shifted next to the battery connector, on the data line.

Which part to test first?

Inspect the battery data line resistor, right next to the battery connector, under the microscope; if it is missing, replace it or bridge the two pads (data line only, according to Chris Stables).
