IPhone 15 flashing battery symbol! Need help!

iPhone 15 is flashing a red battery symbol and will not charge.I replaced the third party charger with an Apple one and still doing same flashing. Any idea how to do a reset?

Keep the new power adapter connected to the iPhone for at least another 6-8 hours to allow the battery to fully charge.


If no luck after that, the battery is defective and will need to be replaced at the Apple Store / Genius Bar or an Authorized Apple Service Provider (AASP).

Do Settings > Battery and click on Battery Health & Charging. What does that show for "Maximum Capacity?" Are any advisory or service messages displayed?
