Great video, Great master, many thanks! But in 4K or at least fullHD would be much easier to see small details. Anyway best video on RUclips about how to replace flex cable.❤ I have the same problem and I am thinking about to replace it myself.
Thank you so much for this wonderful video cleaning the connectors at the beginning of the video fixed mine and I had no idea you could do it ❤❤❤❤
Are these the AirPod max 2? Or the first gen? My AirPod Max first gen are doing this same thing…..Amber then white but no blinking white…..I have had this issue 4 times in the past.Apple did “fix” them without charge all 4 times. but they have the same problem again….5th time……..I want to get the AirPod max 2 but very reluctant.
The ones in the video are 1st gen - but other than USB-C there is no difference to 2nd gen. Same parts, same issues - nothing has changed.
when I tried to reset i have 3 amber lights, whats does that means ?
@@millnots6784 same as always: bad connection. Repair/replace cables
@ and where should i buy the piece to replace ?
Hi where did you buy the flex cable?
Thoughts on the freezer trick to fix? I’ve tried all the steps until 8:58 but still no luck. When plugged in, I only get a brief 3 second green light when I press the noise control button once, or 3 second white light when I hold. Please help! I’ve had these for 2+ years and I’m very frustrated 😢
Sorry to hear that. The freezer trick as well as cleaning the contacts are only temporary fixes for permanent issues. You’re in need of a new signal flex cables to revive them.
My AirPods have the solid white light when trying to reset - but they do not indicate charging when plugging them in. Would that be a battery issue, or likely still the connection between both sides?
Did you follow all steps till 08:57? You record a video and I’ll have a look. I repaired so many Max, yet I’ve to come across a faulty battery, but most shops misdiagnose bad connection for a defective battery. But there’s a reason for that. Here‘s some background information: The way AirPods go to „sleep“ is very similar to most laptop when you close the lid: They use a reed sensor. So once a magnet comes close to the sensor, they turn off. AirPods have a reed sensor in each side and only if both sensor detect a magnet they will turn off. (If you’ve ever wondered why the cups can only swivel 90 degree in one direction: otherwise Apple would have needed to put in 4 reed sensors. I almost admire this decision). As there is a bad connection between the two sides, the AirPods don’t know the state of each reed sensor and will never go to sleep, which causes them to constantly drain the battery and it’ll look like the battery isn’t holding any charge any longer. Leave them on charger for an hour, they might just be empty. Unplug und plug in the charger again, you should get an orange or green light (this even works, without the left side being attached). But this is where my remote diagnosis ends, because firstly you’ll need to ensure that connection between left and right side is given, otherwise the behavior/faults are all over the place. Only when they behave „normal“, but keep flashing white and cannot be found by any device it’s a defective Bluetooth board. But just like you might seen in the video; bad cables and bad Bluetooth PCB come mostly hand-in-hand. TL;DR: Your battery is fine. Always repair/replace the cables first and go from there.
Thank you so much for making this video, can you link the tools that you used?
It’s called „32 in 1 precision screwdriver set“, I choose that because it even has a T1. You can find it rather cheap on AliExpress.
bluetooth board replacements are just so expensive sadly it sucks i need to get a used airpod max as a donor just to fix my airpod max
I would really like to help you with your mission to fix your board! I'm located in south germany and do have a small repair-shop.
Wow thanks to this guide I was actually able to repair my Air Pods. Subbed!
