Apple Watch pinging while charging

Has anyone ever fixed the pinging issue while charging? My Apple SE started doing it and I can hear it across the house. I am thinking to purchase another charger but from some comments that may just be waste of money? What has everyone done?

Hello jlhyer,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


These steps may be able to help with your charging issue:

Follow these steps and try again after each:

  1. Check your charging cable and USB adapter for signs of damage, like breakage or bent prongs. Don't use damaged accessories.Lightning to USB and a USB-C wall adapter
  2. Use a wall power outlet and check for firm connections between your charging cable, USB wall adapter, and wall outlet or AC power cable, or try a different outlet. 
  3. Remove any debris from the charging port on the bottom of your device, then firmly plug your charging cable into your device. If the charging port is damaged, your device probably needs serviceImage of the charging port.
  4. Let your device charge for a half hour.
  5. If your device is still unresponsive, force restart your device:

If the issue persists, can you provide a few more details? Does this happen when charging with another cable? Are you able to test your cable with another iPhone? This will help us isolate the issue.
