Earpods not working

My earpods (lightning connector) have started registering unwanted input (activating siri at random, playing/pausing videos), and the left ear has gone almost completely quiet. There is no visible damage, and the pair is roughly 3-6 months old. Any advice?

Hello,

Check the charging port for lint or other debris and see this:

For the left one being quiet, low volume is a symptom of needing to be cleaned:

Good luck.
