How do I factory reset an iPhone 14 that no longer works?

My iPhone 14 screen is completely black and unresponsive. If I want to sell it, how can I ensure all my information is erased if it's fixed?

The repair process will erase all of the data on the phone, so if you decide to have the screen replaced, the iPhone will be returned to you as a refurbished phone that will be ready to be set up again.


It would be redundant, but you could erase all of the data on the phone again if you wish.
