But after using it a lot one of the ear piece might stop working which makes people go crazy as they are only left with one earpiece and they can’t afford to buy a new one because they are fairly expensive for what they offer and most of the times people try to fix themselves by stretching pulling and fiddling with wires and end up destroying their EarPods and sometimes people think that the sound not coming issue is related with the microphone and volume control panel and as a result they try to fiddle with that and end up with some wrecked EarPods.

So before doing anything which can make your EarPods die forever and you won’t be able to listen even to that one working earpiece I would suggest you not to do any of the above mentioned stuff and must try this on your faulty EarPods or even if you have a separate one the one which had the same problem before.

So what happens is basically on excessive use of EarPods the speaker grills on the actual earpiece get blocked by our ear wax and daily dust and gunk which result in blocking the sound and hence you can’t hear anything from them.

Fix:

Last night I myself faced this issue and I was worried that I would damage mine and then I thought to try an experiment and what I did was I got myself an old spare toothbrush and just brush it on the grills of the EarPods and viola this will remove the ear wax and gunk collected on the speaker grills and the flow of sound will resume like they were new you can also this with anything having medium bristles but do not try it with something sharp or hard as it might scratch or damage the grills and it will affect the sound quality also I would like to suggest you guys to clean them with this method time to time abd it literally takes no more than 1 minute or so and you get yourself loud clear EarPods just like you got them new from the Apple Store and if this doesn’t work then surely you are out of luck and the wires inside that white insulation might have broken and you are pretty much out of luck but if you are a tech person and work around with wires and soldering you can just fix this by finding your old earphones and use their wire by soldering although sound might go bad a little bit but I would say something is better than nothing.

Hope it helps !
