When I try and connect my AirPods Gen 2 to my iPhone 11 it will try to connect for a second then fail

When I try and connect my AirPods Gen 2 to my iPhone 11 it will try to connect for a second then my bluetooth will say that its unavailable for a few seconds then go back to normal. This only happens when I try to connect my AirPods, I have connected other devices to my phone without any problems.

Some Thoughts:

A. Troubleshoot the Pairing:

Disable Bluetooth on all but one device — the one device you want to synchronize with these with.

B. Troubleshoot the Connection:

Using this via these Apple Support links, troubleshoot this.

C. Verify the Balance:

Go to: Settings
Tap: General
Tap: Accessibility
Scroll Down: to Hearing
Adjust: the audio volume balance

D. Clear Out Earwax:
