I have an intermittent red light on one of my airpod pros. The light will go on or off just by changing the position of the pod in my hand. Or, it is on in the case unless I press the pod dow in the case. I can't connect to a device unless the light is off. Any Ideas what this is?
Hi Scooter_T,
It appears you're seeing an intermittent red light status with your AirPods Pro. To clarify, are you see the red light on your AirPods Pro and not the charging case? We're asking as AirPods Pro do not have a light, but the charging case does, which you can read more about below:
"Learn about the status light
Wireless Charging Case: The status light is on the front of the case.
Charging Case: The status light in your charging case sits between the spaces for your AirPods:
If your AirPods are in your case and the lid is open, then the light shows the charge status of your AirPods. When your AirPods aren't in your case, the light shows the status of your case. Green means fully charged, and amber means less than one full charge remains.
When you connect your Wireless Charging Case to a charger, or place it on a Qi-certified charging mat, the status light will stay on for 8 seconds. If the light flashes white, your AirPods are ready to set up with one of your devices. If the light flashes amber, you might need to set up your AirPods again."

Take care.

Best wishes.
The red light is on the right airpod itself, not the case.
