Beats Solo 3: Left Side Trouble Working With Wire ONLY

Sun, 19 Apr 2026 18:21:26 -0700

Hi everyone,

I always use the wire with my headphones and didn’t have trouble with it until yesterday. The right side still works perfectly, but the left will only work if the wire is shifted in a specific way. For example, if I turn my head the sound on the left side will start and stop working several times. It’s hard having to stand completely still for the sound to work and sometimes it’s difficult to get the wire in a position that will work. I’ve tried it without the wire, using bluetooth, and both sides work fine. I also use the mic on the wire for online school so I would prefer to fix the issue rather than use bluetooth. I’ve had these headphones since 2017.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Beats Solo 3: Why doesn't my headphones stay connected.

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 07:54:05 -0700

My headphones don't stay connected to the Bluetooth. They connect and then before I can get anything playing they disconnect. Sometimes by turning off completely. When I press on the left side under the hinge, the light on the right ear comes back on I otherwise if I don't do that then the power button light won't come on immediately

Beats solo pro: Beats solo pro not charging, plugged in blinks red and white and stop.

Sat, 07 Mar 2026 18:25:23 -0700

This issue I have dealt with really ticked me off without headphones, i had this beats solo pro for a long time and had worked good as new and it was the only headphones i listen to on the go and at school. But, then the issue started around a few days ago, around night time I decided to charge my beats solo pro for the time being all plugged in, next day, I checked and it didn't even respond at all, not even once, it happend again and again. I thought it might be the cable I use or something, but it wasn't, soon, i saw the flash was red and white, it happened a few times and It went blank. I tried everything from YT tutorials and such and I even tried to do restarting or reset my beats, and nothing worked. Im starting to feel like throwing it away and it dont want to get it repair. I don't know what to do, help?

If you guys are or not sure what I meant here's the video, 2 of it to be at least cus the first one was over 30 seconds long. The video showed it blinked white and red while charged and red blinked 3 times and stop when put it on. I had a lamb that has a USB cable slot on it where I plug it in

Beats Studio 2 Wireless: Headphones won't charge nor turn on - battery already replaced

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 01:44:45 -0700

Hi all,

I bought used Headphones and fixed them myself. Now after 3 years of usage without problems, my beats began to act weird. Some weeks ago when I wanted to use them, they went out of power. Discharging itself while turned off. So I charged it and it works for some hours. Some days later again, empty without using them. Since last week no sign of life. I bought a new battery, replaced the old one, plugged the charging usb cable but no charge indicator. I tried the 2 min's reset button combo 3 times, but nothing happened.

I checked all power sources and cables. Everything else charges fine, but not my beats...

I checked all solderings and cables but they are fine too. Is maybe my motherboard dead?

I also checked the USB Port on the beats. No sign of damage, or wobbly cable. Cable sits nice and tight.

Usually a new battery is not completely empty. It should turn on right after plugging the battery, but nothing.. any idea?

Powerbeats Pro: My power beats dont charge, the box is charging but the ear buds don't

When I charge the charging case, it lights up white, indicating it's fully charged, but the earbuds don't charge, they don't even turn on. The indicator light on the earbuds doesn't even come on.

Is there a way to fix this? I've already tried cleaning the pins, but nothing has worked.

Beats Solo 3: The adjustable band on the right ride of my beats won’t slide back up

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 15:41:59 -0700

The adjustable band on the right side of my Beats solo3 wireless headphones won’t slide back up. It seems to have overextended and could be caught on something? The audio and Bluetooth connection still works perfectly, just can’t get the side to slide back into place. Any ideas on what I can do to fix it??
