Use this guide to replace the battery in your iPad Pro 12.9" 3rd Gen.
This guide was written using a WiFi + Cellular version (Model A2014). If you have a different model, there might be some slight visual discrepancies, but they won't affect the procedure.
Some photos show the battery connector blocked with two card strips. While this is an optional method, it's more reliable to fully discharge the battery. Ignore this visual discrepancy as you work through the guide.

Hey guys! After the battery replacement(i made all the steps from the list) the ipad isn’t charging, when I plug in charger its display switches on but it doesn’t indicate that It is charging, then I’ve changed the battery back and it acts the same, what could be an issue? Thank you!
I had the same problem. After I replaced the USB charging socket, everything worked again.
