AirPods Max will not pair to my iPhone.

I’ve had these for a while now maybe like almost a year now and they’ve never had any problems but they suddenly stopped connecting to my phone and every time I try to reset them the white light only turns on for a sec then turns off I’ve tried everything but nothing works. Any idea why this may be happening? Or how to fix them?

AirPods Max won’t connect properly Recently I’ve been having an issue where my AirPods Max (bought just a few months ago) have stopped connecting to my iPhone (iOS 16.3.1). When I put them on my Bluetooth settings say “connected” but nothing plays. I’ve tried repairing them, but they won’t go into pairing mode. The status light goes from white to green over and over instead of flashing white like it’s supposed to do. I’ve also tried resetting them about 15 times to no avail. The few times it did seem to successfully reset, a pop-up opened on my phone that said “Not your AirPods Max” and it said to hold the Digital Crown for a few seconds, but holding it didn’t work. I couldn’t find anyone else with this exact issue, so here I am. Is it fixable? Am I at the point where I need to contact Apple?

AirPods Max Never Shows white lights, connection never established Hi, I've purchased my AirPods Max at Dec 11, 2020. Until now, there was no problem with my device. There was a problem with connectivity, I could not pair my device now and its not working. When I want to reset my device, its also not working, only orange light is appearing three times, there is no white blinking light. Can you help me, thanks.

No I tried charging them, the light only comes on when connected to the charger.
