iPad won't charging/unlock iPad to use accessories

My Apple iPad (6th) generation has stopped charging. I have tried various cables all of which were working previously and still charge iPhone. I can still turn the iPad on and use it but its down to 23% charged. I have force-restarted it several times to no effect. A couple of times I have got the message- unlock iPad to use accessories. I have tried turning on USB Accessories under allow access when locked but this made no difference. This morning it briefly charged on one cable and when I tried another it no longer charged with any cable.

Try all the steps provided in this support article:--> If your iPad won't charge - Apple Support


If the issue persists, I suggest that you make an appointment (*) and have your device inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) among this list:--> Apple – Location Selector. After checking it out, they'll give you all the available options.
