So I have a very strange problem plz help o.O

ok so my ipod is behaving stangely, a few months back it was all good and fine and easily charging but from a few Weeks it is sort of not charging properly. It recognizes the charger as when I turn if off and connect it to the charger the apple logo pops up and when the battery is fully drained it tells me to plug in the charger although it is plugged in but does not picks up the charge until i bend or tilt the cable till a specific position when it connects and charges. Plz tell me what problem am i facing and how to solve. i have tried many different cables cleaned out the debris but still no luck 😟 any help guys?

Not Charge

I would try a new cable before using a contact cleaner.

I would never spray it into the port.
