1st gen AirPods won’t reset

First gen AirPods won’t reset. Holding down back button for over a minute and the green light shows up and then disappears but then another light doesn’t appear. I’m trying to reset for a long time still won’t reconnect. When holding down the green light will disappear and turn off no light will show. Any ideas on how to fix this?

iPhone X, iOS 14

If so, we recommend checking in to the service options for your AirPods. You can check into your options for service by following the below link.
