Introduction
If the speakers on your Verizon Ellipsis 10 is making crackling noises, low quality audio or does not produce noise. This guide is designed to provide you with simple steps to remove and replace the Verizon Ellipsis 10 Speaker.
The speakers are responsible for generating all onboard audio without the use of headphones or external devices. Faulty speakers may cause distorted playback, irregular audio, or complete audio failure. You should inspect the speakers for any debris as it can affect audio quality and test the tablet with external audio sources and adjust volume settings to confirm the issue is caused by the internal speakers and not by software or connected devices.
Before beginning make sure to power off your tablet completely and disconnect it from any external power source.
