    6 year old QC25 that have just been reborn. Thanks so much for this hack, a quick touch of the copper wire and it was working. Genius

    After seeing the unsoldering videos to replace the bad speaker, I was so disappointed since I was afraid I had to send the speakers to a professional service. Then, I tired this trick. The first time it didn't work, but I thought to give it another chance and BOOM - there is musing to both of my ears. Thanks a lot!

  • @pwf6981

    My friend THANK YOU. I guess I’m at 4 years of having the Q-35’s and I’ve already had a replacement set sent to me by Bose for exactly the same reason... so yes right ear both times. I have been struggling with upgrading to the Bluetooth version based on the repeated right ear issue. This was so simple and so brilliant. I followed your instructions exactly. NOTE: If you’re looking for the copper wire, its towards the top of the opening and barely visible. Make sure you have your paper folded tiny and rigid, and gently poke the copper wire towards the top - sort of under the plastic framing. ALSO be cautious! Don’t poke downward towards the outside of the enclose - that’s your speaker and if you break that, well you’re done. Awesome fix. If I get another year or so out of these babies I might consider going Bluetooth.

    I’m gonna cry I’ve had my headphones since 2010 and the right cup finally died, and this just saved me $300 from getting new ones. $30 for replacement earcups and your simple tutorial saved my life. I hope the next 1,000 generations of your family are full of love and laughter, bless you ❤❤❤

    Oh my god I had to take mine on a plane for a friend abroad to look at them, he wasn't sure what's wrong. THIS MADE IT WORK. I USED A BOBBY PIN and just poked around. Thank you! 2 years in the drawer and they're alive again

    Had same issue with Quite Comfort 35 and Bose store informed me as headphones were not under warranty and after they had examined and informed that they were broken and would offer discount for purchase of new pair...................and then your "fix" helps bring back headphones to life without having purchase new pair....my trust has gone for Bose staff..................although my trust remains in humanity with your help

  • @bummobile
    @bummobile Рік тому

    I watched numerous vids and all had you replace a "broken" driver. Totally illogical as you would still get terrible distortion from a powered broken driver. Your solution was by far the easiest and obviously cheapest fix, hands down. I am very appreciative and can't thank you enough. I simply wedged a piece of folded thin cardboard material inside where you show and my problem is solved. Much appreciated!

  • @Will-ip3rc
    @Will-ip3rc 5 років тому +1

    Thank you! I have no idea how you figured this out yourself, but THANK YOU for sharing this on UA-cam. It worked for me - and it only took 60 seconds to fix it. I used a wooden coffee stirrer and had to leave a piece in the headphones in order to keep the membrane pressed down. Even so, they now work perfectly! 😇

    300 comments full of people you’ve helped with this including me just now. Thanks so much. I was already researching new headphones- glad I came across this. I used a twist tie like from a bread bag as it seemed better than paper since it was firm but malleable. I had to tape it to get it to work but golden now. 🤙🏽

    you sir are a genius, I have had a pair old QC25 with a broken ear in a draw for years, this quick fix has brought them back to life... I ended up glueing a small plastic arm in place to hold the wire. Just awesome, thank you.

  • @paulc2953
    @paulc2953 5 років тому +1

    Bose won't replace my 2014 QC-25 as too long out of warranty. So this video, 10 minutes of my time, and a small rolled-up sticky note later -- my $300 headphones are fixed. No more cutting out in the right channel; no appreciable diminution of sound quality or noise-canceling capability. THANK YOU U_DO_DIY C !!! (And this is not a hack, but an effective, field-expedient DIY fix for a poorly made, overpriced set of headphones).

  • @kingdomdestiny7458
    @kingdomdestiny7458 4 роки тому

    You are a savior. I followed your instructions and fixed my RH speaker. Bose didn't want to replace a new one add its out of warranty but want me to buy one at discount. Rubbish. Your video was so easy to follow and in less than 10 min. Fixed. Thanks

    @MrsSJR1 4 роки тому +1

    This absolutely worked for two pairs of old Bose QC3 headphones that I was about to throw out! I simply removed the ear pad, and poked around on the speaker membrane with the paper until the sound came back on the speaker that wasn’t previously working. One pair I left the small piece of paper wedged in, the other pair is working without the paper. Genius! Thanks a lot.

  • @uhhhhhh5047
    @uhhhhhh5047 4 роки тому +1

    I had a pair with a disconnection issue after 18 months of use, luckily it was in warranty and I got them replaced, but the next pair had the same issue after about 18 months too, I kept them but hadn't used them for years due to this issue (both sides had lost connection by now), thanks to you I have now revived my favourite pair of headphones! thank you so much mate

I’m so happy thank you!

    @therightsphoenix1111 2 роки тому

    Hello I wanted to thank you very much for creating this video you are a genius to figure out this trick and you saved my headphones $400 for a pair of headphones and somethings so simple as a little tiny wire that gets messed up and just decided it doesn’t wanna work anymore unacceptable to such a reputable company as Bose. There should be massive class action lawsuits fired against this company the same way they did with Apple that any time this issue arises they have to repair that fault.
    Other than that anybody else that has an issue with these headphones the paper does not really work that well yes it forms a conductor but the conductor does not stay. What I did was after five hours of playing with a Post-it note not being able to get the damn thing to connect properly I stepped out of the box and use my unorthodox brain and broke a paper clip the small part take the paper clip and bend it down to form like an arch and then take the paper clip stick it in the hole once you have the connection get a piece of electrical tape tape it and put the casing back on the air phone boom fixed!
    I hope this helps somebody

    Wish I could give you more than a like! I had a pair that did this a few years ago, that I junked. I had another pair do this and was thinking I'd have to buy another replacement. But this is such a simple hack to get them working again! I had to leave the piece of paper in mine or they would not stay on, but they work again! Hurray! (note: these are Q25 apple version). My Q35s have so far worked with no problems.

    I got some as a gift from work, brand new and unopened. Worked fine out of the box but I rarely used them after the first few days. Couple months in I decide to break them out again. Right side wasn't working. Tried a few things online but no luck. Was close to opening my headset after watching this video. Instead, decided to few good, hard smacks and voila, worked like a charm. Although I'm sure customer service wouldn't like the sound of that if I ever need to call them. Probably wouldn't matter though considering I didn't technically make a purchase.

Poke around the left top 11 -12 o’clock position and pushed the cotton down the inside plastic spoke till it locked between the speaker.

    Wow this worked for me! For the bose qc35 ii there is a silver plastic layer underneath the holes that he was pushing the sticky note into. I pushed down on the top right and the speaker started working again. For me I needed to leave something there to continuously apply pressure so I stuck some cloth into the whole and left it there. It works great now!
    Thanks so much for the video!

    this is very effective! Thanks bro! Mine was not working on the left side. Just follow the same step and you’re done. Most useful vid so far!

    very amazing quality :) could not believe such a big brand with these adjustments ... Bose don't have their own service centres in few states in India. I could not mention the pain more .... But thanks for your efforts brother ...
