FP4 Suddenly stopped charging

I was charging my phone earlier in the day, unplugged it, plugged it back it in less than 10 minutes and now it won’t charge. I’ve tried using a different charging block and different cable, and also restarting; nothing there. Also used the block and charger for a different device and it worked. How can I resolve this issue?

Running /e/OS 2.7

Similar thing happened to my partner’s FP4. We ended up replacing the USBC port, which resolved the problem. Interestingly, she was regularly using a third party charger meant for a laptop, which may have contributed.

Looks like I’ll have to do that as well; I opened it up to see if there was anything loose I could just push back in, but the port itself has split from the rest of the part, so I’ll need to replace it.
