1st gen iPad pro won't charge

Hey guys, I've got a 1st gen iPad pro 12'' that won't charge. I've tried multiple cables, chargers, that all work on my iPhone, but not the iPad. It is stuck on the blinking battery logo with the lightning cable with the lightning icon above it. I've tried to send it to DFU mode, but it won't go. I'm assuming it's because I can't seem to get it to boot at all and the cue's to switch from button to button I can't see. Anybody have any ideas? Also, for what its worth, I've tried the hard reset of bower and home button till logo appears, but it never does.

The logo never appears because the iPad Pro does not have enough power to function. There may be several reasons for this behavior by your iPad Pro 1st generation. It may be a bad battery, bad charging port or a bad logic board. You have tried several troubleshooting steps to eliminate software related issues. This one, I believe is hardware related.

My recommendation is that you have your iPad Pro examined at the Apple Store or at an Authorized Service Center for further diagnosis and resolution.
