Hey everyone! I accidentally dropped my wireless headphones from a table at school, and now I have zero volume on the right side. I'm not sure if it's a simple fix like resoldering or if I need to replace the speaker entirely. If resoldering is the way to go, could anyone share some guides or tips? I'd really appreciate it! Just to add, the right side also doesn't work even in wired mode.

Chances are the solder joint on the speaker is broken due to the drop. If you're comfortable opening them up without causing too much damage, you might just need a basic soldering iron to fix it. A little solder should do the trick, but more solder would help reinforce the joint. There are tons of videos online that can guide you through the soldering process—it's not as hard as it sounds!
Before you dive into repairs, you should consider your skills. If you're not confident in troubleshooting or soldering, it might be better to just buy a new pair of headphones. Sometimes the repairs can end up being more trouble than they’re worth.
It sounds like the drop may have caused a broken wire or connection. Given your situation, I recommend opening up the headphones to see if you can spot any damage. Look for disassembly instructions for your specific model online. It’s likely that you’ll find the problem if you probe around a bit. Good luck!
