Hi folks.
My daughter's Sony WH-CH700N Bluetooh headphones have lost audio in the right ear.
Think they were around £100 at the time, but she hasn't used them a great deal. Recently wanted to use them again as she's listening to more music and general youtube vids. I'm one for repairing everything myself and recently fixed broken tumble dryer, washing machine (carbon brush replacement) and over elements. Easy peasy and cheap fixes.
I've carried out all the factory resets/reboots and opened them up to multi meter the wires and all looks ok but the right ear has gone. Very likely the speaker/driver but I can't get in this without breaking it all open (and then potentially re soldering).
Filled out a Sony repair form (they art out of warranty) and the inspection fee alone is £30...add on parts and labour and it might be cost prohibitive. I haven't sent them yet but may not given that cost (I've just rang them).
Anyone sent any headphones off anywhere to fix? I could look at ordering a replacement driver but maybe no guarantee that will be the issue (could be something I've missed). Local repairer with the correct diagnostic tools?
Cheers.
