iPhone 6s is not turning on

iPhone 6s is not turning on and whenever I tried to restore it using iTunes, I found the screen distorted with random blue, green, grey, and white lines as shown in the step-wise pictures below:


Step 1: iTunes is preparing the device to restore



Step 2: Screen Distorted during Restore



Step 3: After restoration failed, the device gets apple logo and again turns black without turning on



Does anyone know what is the issue and how to fix this problem?


The screen is perfectly fine, however, I get 4013 error. I tried different lighting connectors and computers to restore it (as guided by apple website) but nothing worked out. Seems like the problem is inside.


Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

waqar ~ In that case, it's quite likely that the battery is weak due to age & use and is causing the problems you're seeing. Consider having the battery replaced:
