Hearing aid troubleshooting

Check to see if the hearing aid is on.

The most basic method of troubleshooting is certainly this one. Some users who are still getting used to their hearing aids may overlook turning them on before usage.

Increase the volume.

You can examine the volume to see whether it is set at an adequate level if your hearing aid is turned on but you can’t hear anything. There are times when the level is decreased rather than increased, producing no sound.

Examine the batteries.

Check that the batteries in your hearing aids are properly positioned if they are powered by disposable batteries. To rule out any battery problems, you may also try using fresh batteries. Advice: Your hearing aids may need maintenance if the batteries don’t last as long as they normally do.

(For behind-the-ear/BTE variants) Check the tubing

You should inspect the tubing in BTE hearing aids since it may occasionally be broken over time. BTE hearing aid tubing must be sent to a hearing clinic for assessment if it displays evidence of breakage or wear and tear. You should get your hearing aid examined by an audiologist if troubleshooting does not resolve the issue.

When to endorse your hearing aids for repair?

Hearing aids will eventually require maintenance and repair. The following circumstances necessitate bringing your hearing device to your hearing care provider:

  • You encounter excessive whistling or feedback.
  • You have attempted troubleshooting and the device is still not working properly.
  • You experience a whistling or excessive feedback/echoes. This can suggest that a BTE ear mold or custom hearing aid is not fitted properly. Even if the hearing aids fit properly during the initial fitting, the size and/or shape of the ears might change.
  • If the hearing aids have sustained significant damage (cracks, perforations,etc).

A friendly reminder, never try to fix your hearing aids by yourself. It is not worth the cost to pay to void its warranty or further harm it. Have a specialist who is knowledgeable about hearing aid electronics restore your hearing aids.

Taking care of your hearing device

Consider your hearing aids as personal items that require appropriate maintenance and cleaning. Earwax and other debris can easily become lodged in the hearing aids’ tiny holes and gaps due to their diminutive sizes. It is crucial to clean the device every day with a clean, dry cloth or tissue to prevent excessive build-up from obstructing the microphone, sound ports, and receivers.

What People Say?

He loves helping people hear better and have had the pleasure to serve many people for years.
Bill Rudolph, the founder and clinical audiologist of this business, is the nicest guy you will ever meet--and impressed me as being the most knowledgeable and professional hearing and hearing aid service provider I've come across in Austin. I am a PA to a retired college professor, and I brought him here because we'd had such terrible (and frankly, greedy) service at New Sounds Hearing. When I told Bill how much money my boss has practically flushed down the drain with this other company, and how much they wanted to charge him for a single lost device (almost $4,000.00-for ONE hearing aid), he knocked off a big chunk of his bill, and my boss got a new pair of very high tech hearing aids for less than the cost of a single one at New Sounds.

I was looking for good quality audio batteries for my lapel microphones. I talked with Dr. Rudolph about the LR44 battery. Although they don't carry the LR44, they DO carry a compatible replacement, the 675 which will give me longer recording life than the LR44s I was using! Needless to say I am EXTREMELY SATISFIED with the attention and service I received today over something as small as a box of batteries. Dr. Rudolph is an order of magnitude better than any big box audiologist just wanting to make a sale. I didn't need anything to do with hearing aids, I needed help from someone who knew about hearing. I got that, I learned something, and got great service!

            For 15 years my audiologist Mr Randolph and his assistant have gave me the best service I could ever expect and a 5 Star rating is not enough for them and they deserve the amount of stars in the universe which are unmeasurable just as is my gratitude towards both of them.
