How to Fix the Left and Right Headband Ribbon Jack on the Apple AirPods Max 1st and 2nd Gen (DIY Repair Guide)
Do your Apple AirPods Max 1st and 2nd Gen (model numbers: A2096 and A3184) have no sound or produce intermittent audio? Do the headphones refuse to power on or enter pairing mode, or reset during charging but never power on? If you’re facing any of these issues, it may be time to replace the headband ribbon jack. A failing Bluetooth board or power board can also cause these issues. Always check the headband jacks first. Even slight wear or looseness can cause connection loss.
