Thanks you soo much for this tutorial. For months I had an issue with my XM3. Thanks to your very well made video I found the courage to open it up. Loved the clear instructions. With disconnecting the ribbon and reattaching it it started working again like a charm.

Thank you, your video helped me to solve my power button problem 👍

How do you know if your power button is defective or not? Mine won’t turn on, but it does faintly flash blue for a split second when clicking on power button but does however not turn on. My headphone won’t reset neither.

I measured the battery today with a Multimeter and it says 4.29V? Is it the battery the cause for my XM3 not turning on or the power button?

How do I find the Serial Number so I can ship mine to you for repair? I no longer have the box either cause I threw it out as soon as I unpacked them years ago.

Hello,
Is it possible to remove (or just diconnect) the bluetooth antenna please ? (I want to make sure the headset will not emit even if I forget to plug a jack)
