Fixed ONE earbud suddenly QUIET (How to)

  • In this video we are fixing our JBL TWS earbuds (in this case the waterproof JBL Reflect Mini NC). The problem is that one of the earbuds is a lot quieter than the other.
    When looking into the hole of both ear-tips, then we can see that the one, which is quieter, has a blockage of dirt, grime and earwax, blocking the path of the sound. Especially the grid at the very outside is clogged.
    We are soaking the earbuds in a little amount of rubbing alcohol in order to resolve the blockage. Leave the earbud in the solution for at least half an hour. Make sure not to dunk the entire earbud, especially in case your earbud model is not considered waterproof.

      In my case it was also very sudden so I didn't expect it to be earwax. I would have thought earwax would have been more gradual instead of such a sudden drop in volume level

    I've never commented on a you tube video before but I just had to say thanks. This was the easiest fix ever!! I'm so glad I found this. I actually soaked a makeup remover pad in the rubbing alcohol and left the ear bud wrapped in it for an hour before I removed it. I was concerned that the liquid would ruin them and this way only the end was in the liquid. Thanks again I'm so happy with the result

    I've been using Sephia SP3060 earbuds for the last 2 or 3 weeks and was already having problems with the audio in the right earbud being barely audible. I took off the tips and used an alcohol swab to clean both earbuds on both grates on each side, and it did the trick. I never would've thought to try this, thank you very much!

    I was gaving this exact problem and just assumed that after a year of use the right side had a prob. Initially, the right side touch controls had stopped working.
    After trying this, both the sound and touch features on the buds is back to like when i first took them outta the box.
    Thank you so much for sharing...

I didn't have any rubbing alcohol lying around but I had one of them alcohol prep pads that you use for wiping your phone screens before putting on a new screen protector. I just wrapped one of them on the earbud grille and held it for 2 minutes and it worked like a charm. Thank you very much for this amazing tip❤
