Thanks for the helpful tutorial! Battery replacement worked like a charm! (I found the antenna connector too hard to disconnect so I just left it plugged in and had no trouble peeling it off the old battery.)
Man, they don't make battery replacements easy. So many fragile parts that can accidentally break or rip. Still, thanks for the demonstration. My 550 still works fine, but it's holding a charge for shorter and shorter periods of time.
@@rokiedecentra9656 it's the glue that worries me. And I feel like putting an antenna on top of the battery you need to replace is intentionally making it difficult. Incidentally, my 550s have now fully lost their ability to hold a charge. So this is even more relevant. lol
@@PTNLemay you can try some alcohol to soak the glue and let it sit for a minute, works on most to weaken it. I never knew about the coil... It is for NFC so if you damage it your headphones will still work I never found NFC pairing any better and the 2 device connectivity covers the need for it
Thanks, your video showed me how to open up the headphones; I wanted to check the battery but it turned out I needed to fix another issue: the magnet being loose/missing in the switch in the ear cup joint.
Thank you! I just replaced my Battery today! Just a note - the antenna is still sticky so that was easy to place on the new battery. However, to glue the new battery with antenna back on the plastic I just used scotch tape - it seems to be ok since it secured. In case Its not - what kind of glue do you recommend for this?
Thank you dude! This has been very insightful and gets me excited to try this even though I'm new to electrical engineer work. Questions: 1) The link you provided for the battery does not seem to have a connector/pin header. Is it possible to detach the connector/pin header from the old battery's wires and attached to the new battery's wires without having to solder them on? The video did not show this step though you did mention something about soldering. 2) You mentioned taping the antenna on the battery. Would you please clarify this step a little more? I'm not sure if you were using adhesive here or not to stick the antenna on the new battery. I would love to hear your thoughts!
I replaced batteries using this tutorial. When u remove the antenna, it has some residue glue enough to stick it on the new battery. I also removed the orangish sticker from the back of old battery. This orange sticker also had some residue glue, which I used to stick the new battery.
I have same headphones , they were working fine, place them on the charger. Picked back up for use now they don't work. They seem unresponsive. Plug them back onto charger and the battery indicators says full. Turn them on and off with no hole mode button and nothing at all. Any ideas ?
if you're using an iphone, sometime it doesn't display the battery percentage correctly but the Sennheiser app does, try using the app to see if it displays the correct battery percentage
I messed up a bit with the wires but was able to get my headphones working again after several years of neglect. 🙏 thank you

Thank you so much for the tutorial - i was perfectly life saving for the heavy airline traveler I am. big thumbs up
Thank you my friend, very helpful. I now have a new battery and headphones are functioning again. 👍
Perfect!!!! Thank you! I just replaced my Battery today! ❤❤❤
Thank you for this video! I just revived my headphones using your instructions!
major part you skipped ..how to solder that wire and how to stick antenna on new battery
Perfect! Thanks to you i fixed my headphones!
Battery specs:
700mAh
3.7V
Measurements:
48*35*3 mm
4mm wouldn't fit?
My pxc's kept powering off after showing signs of not charging properly after a new battery all's good
Thx for the video

this is pretty easy compared to how battery replacements can be in modern electronics....

Thanks very much, im charging my new battery as i type, hope I havent broken anything 😀

Thank you! This was very helpful!
PXC 550-II 도 같은 배터리가 호환됩니다. 또한 수리 방법도 비슷 합니다. 단 PXC 550-II는 안테나가 배터리에 붙어 있지 않아 더 쉽습니다. 겁먹지 말고 시도해보셔도 됩니다.

you can replace the cell salvaged from another good quality battery and re-use the BMS board if you can't find a replacement battery
Would the glue dissolve using regular iso alcohol? I'd rather not bend and prod at a battery, let alone using a heat gun on one
Thank you dude!

When u remove the antenna, it has some residue glue enough to stick it on the new battery.
I also removed the orangish sticker from the back of old battery. This orange sticker also had some residue glue, which I used to stick the new battery.
Guide works for MB 660 aswell. (Pretty much identical headset) Thank you.
Thx a lot
does it matter if the mAh is greater than 700?
Yes, bigger mah may mean bigger size and may not fit
I have a problem where my battery is full,but the headphones can't turn on. Can somebody help me?

I have same problem bro.. Do you find any solution for this?.. Please help
I have exactly the same issue Kane. Did your issue require a new battery and did thatvfix the issue/ thanks in advance
Same issue when i charge it the lights blinks only but not turning on…seems not charging at all…it just suddenly stopped working
Is the same battery for PXC 550-II ?
Not entirely sure because i haven’t opened that, but most likely it is
I tried replacing the battery and it still won't charge past 20 percent. Any ideas?

@@tkf6449 Will give this a try...thanks...using an android but will still try it
the app can't find my pxc 550 now on android haha...who knows maaaaaan
is this similar to the MB 660?
Just used this video to fix my MB660
@@Tieutie yea i tried as well but the problem was still therw
