Hearing aid troubleshooting and repair at home
Sometimes, hearing aids stop working due to simple issues that you can address at home.
Basic Steps to Try First:
Check the battery: Replace it or recharge fully (depending on your model).
Inspect for blockages: Wax or debris can clog the sound outlet or microphone.
Clean the tubing and domes: Use a hearing aid cleaning brush or soft cloth.
Check app connection (Phonak, Widex, Signia): Make sure the hearing aid is paired correctly to your device.
Brand-Specific Tips:
Phonak:▫️ Use the myPhonak app for troubleshooting guides.▫️ Restart the aid by opening and closing the battery door or pressing the button.
Widex:▫️ Use the Widex Moment app for diagnostics and volume adjustment.▫️ Clean mic covers carefully—Widex is sensitive to debris buildup.
Signia:▫️ Try the Signia App to check pairing or sound settings.▫️ Use Signia’s Click Sleeves—check for damage and replace if needed.
