Q: Microphone not working on Apple Watch
Hello,
The microphone on my Apple Watch Sport is not working. Siri doesn't respond when activated manually, no dictation, and the other party on a phone call cannot hear me.
Using iPhone 6 plus with latest iOS 9 release.
No physical damage, or water immersion. Watch looks like new even though it's worn every day.
I have done the following.
Restarted both iPhone and watch.
Force restarted both.
Unpaired and re-paired the Apple Watch from the phone.
(Of course my one year warranty ended one week ago)
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike
It may help to clean your watch, paying particular attention to the microphone port (the lower of the two ports on the opposite side to the buttons), in case it has become blocked by debris.
Be sure to follow Apple's cleaning instructions (do not insert anything into the port and do not use any compressed air).
