The Repair Plus Taptic Engine vibration motor for iPhone 8 Plus is a brand new, OEM standard replacement for the iPhone 8 Plus Taptic Engine. It fixes a phone that no longer vibrates, rattles, or has lost the Home button click feel. Shipped the same day from Manchester when you order before 4pm, Monday to Friday.
Key features
- Restores vibration: brings back vibration for calls, messages, alerts and silent mode.
- Brings back Home button feedback: the iPhone 8 Plus Home button uses the Taptic Engine to create its click, so a faulty motor often leaves it feeling dead.
- Made for iPhone 8 Plus only: OEM standard size, mounting points and connector for this model.
- Tested before dispatch: each motor is checked before it leaves our Manchester stock.
- Low-cost repair: a simple part swap for DIY repairers and a handy stock item for repair shops.

Compatibility
Fits the iPhone 8 Plus only. It does not fit the smaller iPhone 8, the iPhone 7 Plus or the iPhone SE models, which use a different Taptic Engine shape and fitting. Check your model in Settings > General > About before ordering.
Signs your Taptic Engine has failed
- No vibration at all, even with vibrate on ring and silent switched on.
- A weak, grinding or rattling vibration.
- The Home button works but has no click feel.
- A loose rattle from the bottom of the phone after a drop.
If these match your phone, a replacement Taptic Engine is the usual fix. Fitting means opening the screen, so use a suitable opening tool and take care with the display cables.

Frequently asked questions
Will this Taptic Engine fit my iPhone 8?
No. This motor is for the iPhone 8 Plus only. The standard iPhone 8 needs its own Taptic Engine.
Why does my iPhone 8 Plus Home button not click?
The click is created by the Taptic Engine, not a moving button. If the motor fails, the Home button can feel dead. Replacing the Taptic Engine for iPhone 8 Plus usually restores the feel.
Is it hard to fit?
It is a moderate DIY job. You need to open the screen, disconnect the battery, then remove a few screws and the connector cover near the bottom of the phone.
How fast will it arrive?
Orders placed before 4pm, Monday to Friday, are dispatched the same day from Manchester.
