Left AirPod stopped working

the left air pod stopped working. I have tried everything to include "forget this device." and the air pod connect picture does not show up on my iphone after I get the orange light. What can I do to restore the functionality?

4: Check the charge status on your iPhone or iPad to make sure that each AirPod is charging .
5: Put both AirPods in your ears.
6: Play audio to test both AirPods.
