Apple Pencil Tilt function not working

Hi, I couple of days ago my original tip/knob broke so I ordered original replacements. I tried two different ones and when I do so, the tilt function doesn't work at all. I see it from the highlighter tool in the Notes app and in Procreate. What should I do??

If the inner (metal) transducer has been damaged, you will require a new Apple Pencil. If only the plastic tip is damaged, then replacing the tip may restore normal operation.


The transducer is a fragile component. If damaged, it is very likely that the Pencil will now be wounded or broken. Other than the replaceable plastic tip, the Pencil has no serviceable parts.
