Is one of your AirPods suddenly staging a silent protest? It's a frustratingly common issue, but don't panic! Before you declare audio Armageddon, try these quick fixes.
First, **check the basics:** Is the 'silent' AirPod charged? Place both in the charging case for at least 15 minutes. Next, ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and that your AirPods are properly connected.
Still no sound? **Time for a clean!** Earwax buildup can be a major culprit. Gently clean the speaker mesh with a soft, dry brush.
If cleaning doesn't help, **try a Bluetooth reset.** Forget the AirPods from your device's Bluetooth settings, then re-pair them. A hard reset of the AirPods themselves (press and hold the setup button on the charging case until the status light flashes amber, then white) can also work wonders.
If all else fails, it might be a hardware issue. Contact Apple Support for further assistance. Hopefully, one of these solutions will bring harmony back to your ears!
