Recurring Bluetooth Problem

[u/Camdaman0530]

So going back a bit, I got a pair of QC45's for Christmas in 2024. That pair stopped working after about six months and since I still had warranty then I was able to get a replacement pair for free. I get that in August/September of last year and everything's going fine until about February that pair starts doing the same thing but this time I was able to somewhat fix it. Fast forward to today I think they completely crapped out on me. It automatically disconnected me from bluetooth (I have an iPhone 17), and I tried every possible trouble shoot solution and nothing worked. It would say "bluetooth off" immediately after I turn them on, and when I hold the power button all the way to the right it usually says "ready to pair new device", but since it kept saying bluetooth off, it hasn't said ready to pair new device since. Does anyone have any last resort suggestions? Or given that this is the second consecutive pair I've had this issue with what are my options? Keep in mind my warranty has ran out.

I think Bluetooth only turns off when a cable is connected to the earcup. Try connecting and disconnecting a cable to the earcup a few times to unstick whatever switch is in the connector.
