Unable to hear sound of left Airpod, right working and connecting fine.

It started when I used my right Airpod for a prolonged amount of time on it's own. Left Airpod had no issues before then, I got them both replaced less than a year ago. It charges, shows up on the card, but even with automatic ear detection disabled, it doesn't work. This is extremely frustrating because resetting, cleaning, forgetting, checking the balance, and fully charging them doesn't work.

Using One AirPod at Once:

You Can't. You need both AirPods to be able to use these. On top of that, they need to be of the same Serial Number. So, there may be debris in there.


Troubleshooting AirPods Balance:


A. Maneuvering these:

Wiggle the AirPod around a little bit in your ear.


B. Also, Clear Out Earwax:

C. Visit Apple Support links:




D. Verify the Balance:

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: General
  3. Tap: Accessibility
  4. Scroll Down: to Hearing
  5. Adjust: the audio volume balance
