One AirPod won't charge

This is the second pair of AirPods that’s done this. But now instead of taking more than a year or two to stop charging, it’s three months.


I’ve reset. I’ve cleaned. I’ve forgotten the device and reinstalled. I can wiggle them until they charge if I hold the case in a certain way. But then, overnight left side will charge, right side will just drain to zero so when I need to workout. I have half my audio.

Troubleshooting AirPods Charge:



How to Fix This:

Try troubleshooting the power manually...


A. A Few Links to Visit:




B. Try the Following Tasks:

  • Hold Down the Button on the case for about 15 seconds.


  • Use an Apple Brand Cable - not a third party one - cool though it may look, a fabric, third-part cable would likely tear - (Apple cable's are plastic and are intended for Apple)


  • Remove the AirPod from the Case, then place it back in the charger. Perhaps it need to resync with he charger.
