- Final Fix (need to disassembly): • LOGITECH G933 Power Bu...
Trying to fix the faulty power button of the Logitech G933 Headset which is muffling the sound on one of the ear cups. This method is a easy fix using WD-40 to clean the power switch.
Maybe i'll do it again using a proper contact cleaner.
If have a solution or did try this method, please, comment bellow.
That's all.
Thanks, Folks!
#Logitech #G933 #FIX
Worked so far for me. I have a G935. Crazy they haven't addressed this yet. I think I filed four warranty claims on FOUR different G935s, all with this same problem.
For the G935 though, there is one extra screw near the volume wheel that seems to hold the thing in place. Make sure you remove them before forcing anything further.
It was also a bit more tough to finagle the blue electrical tape wire back into the housing, because the G935 has this connection BEHIND the board, whereas in this video, it is on the front. In the end I use my fingernails and some gumption to get them back into place.
So far working great. Thanks a lot man!
you get a thumbs up for getting me to the end...found out elsewhere that I can actually open the switch cover and clean the contacts. Thank you for your work on this it saved me another purchase
Edit: turns out that was your video too! lol thanks again!
Sounds like a champ that dude from the other video! hahah
WOW!!!! So many years... I even claimed warranty and got a replacement unit... that eventually had the same issue. I just took the old one out; audio completely "lost". This is THE FIX, period. Going to open my second unit to give it the WD40 shower too. Amazing the power that WD40 brought to fix this, properly stunned.
March 22, fixed a year old struggle thanks to you and in 5 minutes. Thanks a lot mate
is it really this simple? i have a the G935 and they look exactly same. did yours sound like the one ear was going out or they weren't loud enough like they used to be?
@@hellalike it's a fix, but I would instead of using silicone spray, something like alcohol 96%, 70% or contact spray. Worked for me for about 8 months with the silicone spray. Think will work better with contact spray or alcohol
@@itspvme oh sweet. i still have some mass air flow sensor cleaner. I think that should work just fine.
after 4 years and you are still a lifesaver! G935 fixed with same method. A minor difference in disassembly steps. Hint remove the yellow tape from the switch and pour wd40 in there, wipe and re apply the tape.
Works great, my dirty power button is now clean and working like its new. I also cleaned the volume weel and now doesn't skip. Thanks!!
By the way I used some electronics cleaner applied with a toothpick with cotton around the tip...
Had the exact same problem recently! This video help me out a bunch and fixed my issue! Thanks so much!
Great to hear! 🤘⚡
Fiz o conserto e ficou bom. Agradeço demais. Confesso que me caguei de medo pois um parafuso caiu dentrodo alto falante, o ímã puxou quando eu mexi. Me senti um cirurgião usando uma pinça e uma chave de fenda para tirar o parafuso. Encaixei e limpei tudo e depois vi que não tinha encaixado o botão de ligar direito. Abri de novo me cagando, coloquei a culpa no gato, ele ficou confuso. Fiz carinho nele, pedi desculpa, consertei o botão. Me assustei quando vi que o cabo flat do meu é diferente, depois vi que era o meu é o 935, mais medo. No final deu tudo certo, fiquei escutando músicas e digitando esse comentário para agradecer.
mermao, mais impolgante q isso so filme de açao
@@victorr4429pow, até pensei que ele tava desarmando uma bomba.
Eu tinha o 933 e tentei arrumar, deu ruim e eles parou de funcionar um ouvido, por sorte o RMA não questionou isso e recebi outro 933 que teve o mesmo problema, quando o 935 apareceu, falaram que era igual, porém com um componente diferente no botão e que não daria problemas, cá estou eu usando o 935 e com o mesmo problema... desisto dessa linha de produtos, eu amo os outros aspectos, mas esse botão maldito de liga e desliga poderia ser um simples push button, não essa aberração de switch que não funciona direito
@@viniciusschadeck4992 eu tive o problema no 935, acionei a garantia, mandaram outro, aí não demorou muito, começou a dar o mesmo problema.
Foi quando vim procurar uma solução, por que não ia mais entrar em contato com a garantia.
Consegui arrumar tanto o velho quanto o novo, agora tenho os dois funcionando.
@@viniciusschadeck4992 uma "estratégia" pra não ficar desligando é deixar ele ligado mesmo quando tá pegando. Se ele desligar, só encaixar o USB que ele desperta
Worked on my G935 perfectly! Thanks a lot! This is my secound pair that got this issue. First one was within warranty. Guess should have searched for that fix earlier. I recomend to take out the two screws holding the Shellpeace on the left side as well. That way it is very easy to remove the circuit board without breaking or bending it.
It worked! I cleaned the switch with isopropyl alcohol and lubricated it with mineral oil (which is non-conductive). Thank you so much!
You saved my mental health man, thanks a lot. After G502 mouse now this headset is fucked up either and it's not even one year old. I promise this is my last logitech product.
just use your warranty i did and got a brand new one for free
This video is so helpful..I had like 2 years with that problem and thought it was something complicated. But is as easy as the video instructions. Thanks man.
I haven't fixed my headset yet but I will definitely try this. My headset keeps sounding muffled/ distorted unless I wiggle the power button for it to be at the right spot... it reminds me of the wired ear buds for phones lol. It's disappointing for an expensive headset to do this. Thanks for the tips!
Yes Vanessa, i was going through the exactly same problem, and it was only getting worse with time. Check out my other video about the fix, that one got it fixed for good it's been months now, working everytime and i think i use it daily!
@@igor.lacerda Thank you! I'll check it out for sure. I just need to find the right tools to unscrew the headset. Thanks for the upload! Really appreciate it.
Worked like a charm. Saw this months ago and finally made the time to get it done. Appreciate it!
Was yours switching sound from left to right? I have to balance my switch to get them both to work properly
😮😮😮😮
Thank you so much!! had been struggling with the power button for so long, I was even looking to buy a new one.. and stumbled upon your video! Saved me buying a new one! I love this headset!
My 935s were a little different on the inside but it certainly fixed my issue so far. I apprciate your effort!.
Los tornillos son muy difíciles de sacar, ayuda💀💀💀
Agreed, same deal, though I feel the average person should be made aware of the springs within the switch, they aren't secure and would be easily lost, this would be the end of the headphones. (mine fell out while cleaning)
@@nickchild2209thank you for this I’m considering doing a clean and know nothing of springs.
@@Jaykurb the springs mentioned are visible in this video ruclips.net/video/9r8KK3ynSQA/видео.html made by the same person, time stamp 2 minutes exactly, they are within the part that performs the switching motion.
@@nickchild2209 thank you sir!
saw this video when it came out and debated on it. today was the day. what a difference. thank you!
Fixed it, I upgraded the switch (same switch model # with letter O at end) and also lube the heck out of all the plastic conections so they stop squeeking. Fixed for nother 3 years of use.
I bought this headset 4 years ago and was finally tired of this glitch and fixed it with this video. Awesome! BTW: The WD40 works also on the speaker volume wheel.
This fix worked on mine. The faulty power button was driving me insane glad I was able to fix it. Thanks!
Glad it helped, was the same for me for a long time!
After doing a similar repair on my G935 (and damaging the cable for the driver in the process, leading to me having to cut the damaged part out, stripping and resoldering the wires together :/) one thing that i would add is that id recommend fully removing the clip holding the power button (fiddly as it may be) and fully cleaning the contacts (in my case with isopropyl alcohol and a qtip). Your method seems to work fine, the issue that may arise is that since the particles preventing proper contact are not completely removed it will probably not take as much time for the issue to arise again. Although I agree that removing the PCB is a pain, even more so with the g935 because the ribbon cable is on the bottom instead of on top of the PCB.
I love you!!! more than 1 year getting mad with this issue!! Today I noticed that it was the button causing the bad sound!!... I did exactly the same as your video and my headphones are working as new... You saved me of buying a new one!! hahaha thank you very much sir!!!
Logitech g933:
On spanish: lo hice con alcohol isotropico porque no tenia WD40 y funciono perfectamente! Es el boton de encendido tal y como lo pone en el video.
Muchisimas gracias!!
2022 and still useful , thanks mate
Bro, thank you so much, I cannot believe how well this worked! One word of caution, keep your screws well away from your dissembled headphone. It's still magnetic, even when it's off.. :P
Heyy, you're welcome! Glad it helped. Yes, when the screw get there, it can be a pain! hahahha
I just had to cut the grill to get a screw out
I have a 935 and this fix worked for it TYVM.. Was going to drop 200 on a new pair but thanks to you I don't need to !!
Great fix. I was just wondering if this would work for mine and hear I am wishing I had done it much sooner. WD40 IS amazing, but best bet would be get a non-conductive contact cleaner for fine-electrical and micro circuitry. I have used standard contact cleaner before and melted off very thin solder traces, so I use this stuff now. Permatex makes it. I'm sure others do.
you deserve a nobel prize .
thank you ! 唔該 !
Wow, thank you! Glad it helped fixing you headset! 🤘⚡
Can't believe WD40 was the fix for this 😂 Thanks for sharing!
Gracias por este video! Mi g933 funciona como el día que los compre. Me has ahorrado 200€. Tienes un nuevo suscriptor en España
Que liquido le echa???
September 22 , Fixed my heasdset after like 2 year of struggle ty mate
Thanks. This worked perfectly for me too. My model had a slightly different design on the circuit board inside, and a bit more difficult to disassemble, but manageable.
Amazing (maybe no so much) that Logitech uses vendors that use crap sub-standard parts for their devices for this video to be necessary...
Did the same thing but with rubbing alcohol which you can use on electrics. Worked like a charm thanks!
Dude, i never thought it would be a fix that easy.
thanks friend, with your video I solved two big problems of these headphones, the Power button and also the volume wheel that did not turn down. with a drop of wd40 they are as good as new
Glad I could help! 😁
same problem here, anything special you did to the volume wheel or just a drop fix it?
@@maxwasabi hello, a drop of wd40 was enough to solve everything
@@YCIUSS i just finished putting my headset back together, thanks for your help :)
edit: forgot to add that everything works like new again
@@maxwasabi THX @igor lacerda )))
Worked! Still saving G333s around here! Thanks man!
Piece of advice with almost ANY Logitech headset:
while you have the left earmuff open anyway, see what happens to the wires when you move the microphone (fold/pull). They will most likely scrape over the board. This will eventually cause the wires to frill out and break.
If you ever got a feeling Logitech mic just 'gives out' over time(way after warranty ran out), thats most likely the reason why. No idea if its neglect or planned obsolescence, but its interesting this design flaw has never been amended.
Easy fixes can be hot glue on the wires exposed to the most friction, or just electrical tape on that area of the board to reduce friction and protect from pointy bits.
Thankyou so much! I cannot believe Logitech is this unprofessional. It really baffles me how they haven't offered compensation about this issue beause it is clearly worldwide. All they ever say is: Do these troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue. LIKE THAT'S NOT THE ISSUE.
So yes thankyou for helping us when the company clearly can't.
love u man. fixed exacly this model with this problem and i used the same tequnice.
Hola! Gracias por tu video!, problema solucionado en mis auriculares, G935, es un poco diferente al abrirlo, pero el WD40 funcionó a la perfección.
Saludos desde Bolivia!
Fico feliz que tenha funcionado!! 🤘⚡
The real fix i found was to turn that board around and you'll see a gold metal strip. In the middle that bar gets bent outwards a little bit over use. If you gently press that bar in. It doesn't really go in that much but just try to flatten it. It doesn't need that much force just just a flat object like a safe flat head and press gently on that golden part of the switch and that should fix the problem.
Yea man, just opened and found the problem, the 2 contact plates on the right of the power switch were dirty, cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol and its working like new! FINALLY! now just need to fix the squicking noise that the headset plastic make..
I did this and the problem comes back after a few uses. I have done it like 3 times now.
@@TheForce Yea man, i'll do a followup video with a definitive fix later this week. The same had happened to me, but since last fix it working without problems for a few days.
@@igor.lacerda thanks Igor, the headset is very good but this button issue is a pain in de arse
ruclips.net/video/9r8KK3ynSQA/видео.html Here it goes, guys! FInal Fix!
Thank you so much for this video, it saved me a new headphone replacement for my G935!
Thanks for this video, I think I've managed to fix my G933! I've been slapping my left ear piece and wiggling the power button for the past year but looks like I won't be doing that anymore :D
Hahahahaha something about there
You fix my headset you save my money you are the best thank you. ❤❤👍👍👍👍
Hi I don't have this problem, but I have a problem with my left logo, it seems that the blue color doesn't work, red and green does, so i wanted to take it apart and your video is a good guide, thank you hope you can fix your problem
I guess that kind of problem is because of a faulty dead RGB diode, unfortunetaly only replacing going to fix
thank you so much this fixed my issue no need for a new headset anymore lol unless this fails after another year😅😅
Just glad im not the only one with this problem
Not bya bunch! hahahah 🤘⚡
Bump again for another person you saved!!!! Thank you!
thx bro. i was just about to throw mines away, gave it a go and it worked.
Excellent! Glad it helped! 🤘⚡
Thank you!!! Fix worked the same for the G935.
Bro I Fixed 2 of my G935 and now i will try it on the old G933 looking if i can make a small Present to some Friend who need a Headset :D
I have a problem with the power switch of a G935 after 2 years. Depending on the position of the switch it sounds or not. I follow the steps and it works fine now. In G935 the board is not exactly the same, you don't need to quit the flat cable but you cannot take out the board because the volume button but you can move a bit the board and have enough space to clean the power switch. Thanks!
going to try this tomorrow!
It works on g935 as well!
August 22, fixed my headset thanks to you ! thank you !!
Thank you!!!! I used Isopropylalcohol and a q-tip! Your video better than all the others!
Great to hear! Glad it help!
Here is a tip: if you have shaking hands like me, remember to tape up the speaker tiny holes. If any screw gets in there it will be a nightmare to retrieve, you'll have to cut some of the holes to get to the screw, since the magnets in the speaker will make it impossible to retrieve the screw.
Uma dica: se você é desastrado como eu, coloque uma fita adesiva em cima do alto falante, tapando os furinhos. Isso evita que um parafuso caia lá dentro. Se o parafuso cair, vai ser um inferno para tirar de lá, uma vez que o ímã do alto falante vai deixar o parafuso coladinho. Eu tive de cortar um pedacinho da armação de ferro (os furinhos) para recuperar um parafuso.
holly shit man i had my headset on my desk not in use for a few months all the sudden the audio is completely fucked up and im struggling to find anything, THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEO
You know...
I saved all six of my G933 and last two G935 I've got, thinking whenever I get to be productive, I would fix it and replace the power button, since I knew it was the problem.
This video probabbly saved me some time and a dolar or two on switches. Will try this and will come back with the results (next month, because I'm still a lazy a** mf! LOL.
Still you earn the follow for those two videos.
logitech stuff is nice for a few months. but always fails
Logitech is great if you don't mind doing some maintenance every once in a while... which is pretty unacceptable...
and most of the time it's a switch that is giving problems (for me at least)
Between my Logitech mouse and this headset, I've realized that their products are basically expensive subscription rather than actually owning a product. The G933 is amazing, but I've also gone through 4 of them because of the power switch
@@Rocksteady72a I just dump some IPA into the switch and it works for a few months until I have to dump some more. I ain't buying the same broke product again.
I tried switching to Razr... and... OMFG... what a mistake. That stuff is expensive and I scurried back over to Logitech real quick. Yeah... not everything is perfect, but I can say that Logitech still has a higher market quality than a lot of other similarly priced items.
Thnx man. You did me a favor!
Glad I could help 🤘⚡
Consertei meu headset e ta igual novo agora. Tenho certeza que a gente nao devia tacar WD40 nele, mas era o que eu tinha em mãos tb e mandei ver mesmo assim =P . Fone ta funfando lindão. Obrigado pelo video!
Yes, fixed it for me too, thank you!
did this yesterday, worked like magic, thanks buddy!
Tried this for G633 and it worked really well too, but probs the problem will happen again after awhile, a design flaw i guess
Have to try this solution (similar problem). But I'll use Isopropyl alcohol instead. And maybe the solution the next video as well in one go.
same fix worked on my G935 thanks
Ah! someone with a G935! YAYY!
I have to do mine as well, so my question is, is disassembly pretty much the same as we see here?
Is there just the ribbon cable to remove and is the switch board pretty much the same?
A few years ago, I took apart a different model of Logitech 7.1 surround headphones and that one had a lot more wires, because in each ear piece there were several "speakers" (since discrete 7.1 surround). With those ones, since the batteries were shot anyway as well as pretty much breaking apart (plastics) I didn't bother fixing those. I should mention, the problem with those was a broken wire... the one that goes from the electronics side, through the head strap into the other side. What a pain to release all that.
@@BlondieSL more or less. There are some minor differences but you will figure it out.
Parabéns pelo excelente serviço para a humanidade, funcionou.
Going to try this now, do you also know how to fix the cable jack? When I plug this headset into a controller the sounds goes low and only works abit when I wriggle the cable in the port, but it always goes silent again within a few seconds.
Thanks for this! I just fixed my headset using your vid. Awesome! To bad this is needed but yeah...
Glad I could help!
I have been having lots of trouble tying to unscrew the headset apart, the screws don't seem to want to move with the screw drivers I have. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should use ?
I used a 0x60 mm screwdriver and it worked
@@tibomeulemeester5038 amazing, thankyou very much
What I did was take it all apart and used contact cleaner on the switch. when i put it back together i also pushed in the circuit board all the way down so it was level to the plastic switch. i then glued the board to the plastic clear things that go through the holes in it. hope that helps anyone
Hey Luis, there are a few different atempts that work in some cases, but on mine it didnt. Thats why i made another video with another fix thats been working for months now. Hope yours is working fine.
funcionou mesmo, faz um que passo a vida a colocar spary contato mas passado uns dias, tenho de colocar de novo. Este parece que foi um fix definitivo. Apesar de ter partido o encaixe da pecinha metálica que vai em cima, consegui reparar ao colocar um arame isolado em cima.
Same thing here now it works almost perfect again
i received the g935 already with sticky/bumpy switch sometimes makes the audio come from a single side (which is weird and can't confirm it) so i kept it on all time and if goes to off mode due ti inactivity i turn it on using the the usb power... without touching the button.
thanks a lot
You are most welcome! 🤘⚡
Thankyou, so so much :)
You're welcome! 🤘⚡
DUDE I LOVE YOU, THANK YOU SO MUCH
don't have wd 40 rn. gonna have to go and buy some rn unless someone has a better solution. nun the less, thx for the way!!
Contact cleaner will do better! 🤘⚡
I cleared out the fucking power button its was shaking and does not turn the headset properly now it works great thanks, man 👍
Great, Salman! Glad it helped, its a annoying problem!! hahah
thanks man , worked well
thanks a lot really
Happy to help! 🤘⚡
Works like a charm!
Congrats man! There's also another fix if it comes back. Consider subscribing to help me as well, thanks!
You've earned one new sub from me!!!
It's work!!!!
Thanks so much!!!
Glad I could help and thanks for sub! 😁🤘⚡
I just took out the plastic switch and broke off the part of the housing holding it, so now there's just a hole in the headset where you the actual electrical power switch is...
it ain't pretty, but it works and I bought the headset used for 15$ because of this exact fault anyway
Hey Hunter, still looks like a bargain! hahah, maybe you can try gluing the button back to life
You are the man
Hello, mate. seems like you have experience with these. maybe you can help me - my g935 not turning on, and when I connect them to my PC via cable (because other methods doesn't work at all) it is recognized as Avnera AV6202/ Maybe it is somehow tangled?
This worked for me. Instead of contact spray, I used a straw and blew on to the switch area.
Greath, ethan!
Yeah, just compressed air would be better if it’s just a dirty switch. Also, the other video used contact cleaner not straight wd-40. The contact cleaner would not leave the same kind of oily film that collects dust and dirt. Contact cleaner is really meant for oil gunkfilled connectors and is overkill for this application.
before opening up and everything try this easy fix first:
disconnect battery
hold headphones upside down
spam the power switch a bunch on and off
reconnect battery and test
Thanks a lot
damn id love to be able to hear it pity my headset struggles to turn on due to a faulty power button
i didnt changed mine i used some contact clenner spary after i removed the tiny piece of tape that was on the power switch i couldnt replace mine because my soldeing iron seems like it dosent go that hot to melt the solder that they used
works!
Funciona! simple y rapido.
is it possible that using WD40 causes a constant, albeit faint static/white noise in the background? My power button does work now properly but I wonder if this issue with the static noise was caused by me being an idiot and using WD40 instead of contact cleaner or the issue had been already present before applying the "fix" I just didn't notice it because it's so faint.
My volume wheel is failed. Volume ofter goes up when I turn down...can WD-40 or other lubricant get fixed?
so in the last seconds of the video is the volume the same with the power button ? ? cuz i would love to give this a shot
Me sirvio, pero hubieras quitado la tapita de los botones para desmontar la plaquita es mas facil, para quitar y poner
I'm starting to have this issue with my G935. Audio is starting to crackle when putting a very slight pressure on the switch and when I'm on mic the audio fades. When I put my finger on the switch everything is fine.
Same you can use this vid it's almost the same
Worked for me. Thanks!
thanks bro i already fix mine i have 1 more problem regarding mic i cant use my mic
Thanks, This video is gold❤
