How To Repair JBL Bluetooth Headphones

  • I hate to throw an item away until I have tried to repair it, or at least investigated the problem. These JBL 500BT bluetooth headphones were cutting out on the left side, and it turns out the pressure from the spring contacts was enough to dislodge the small circuit board. It was not clipping into place very firmly. I'm not sure if this is a common problem or not, but the fix was simply to glue the board in place. I used a spritz of accelerator and my favourite cyanoacrylate, Loctite 480, but any super glue would work.

    So glad I looked for an answer on my left speaker not working. I disassembled it and saw that the board was intact. So I looked overall and all seemed good. Last thing I did was spray contact cleaner on the board. After reassembling. I powered on and heard both speakers 🔊 Thank you for having this available. You made my day. Now I can listen totally. And listen to these bad boys when I mow my yard!!👍💛💙

    Thank you very much for this video mate. I have the Tune500bt, almost the same model but with longer battery life and some other feature I think but same appearance. A nephew of mine dropped them 2 nights ago and they completely stopped on the right side for me unfortunately.

      Now I think about it, I reckon I might have dropped mine a day or two before this as well. The left was cutting in and out when I shook the phones a little. I do a lot of audio tech stuff, but I'm no headphone expert. I just like to encourage people to investigate before throwing stuff out. Amazing how often a broken item has a very simple fix....

    I had the same symptom, but turned out the actual speaker was open circuit. Also, I guess I have a newer version of the Tune 500BT because there were no springs; now there are soldered wires. Still, I had a second non-working pair so managed to fix this one by replacing the speaker. And would never have figured out how to open, test speaker resistance, and then replace the pad, without this video. Thanks.

      Really I'd think any 4-core cable that is flexible and the same outer diameter would work. You could probably also make 3-core shielded cable work by using the braid as the battery negative connection. You could probably re-use an old (4-core) USB cable if it's the right diameter. Good luck with the repair!
