Chosen Solution

Whenever I try to turn on my beats solo 2 wireless, the lights just all flash white and followed by one red light, and then the same thing 2 more times. I am not trying to reset my beats when I am turning them on, and I tried charging my beats to full battery, and when I turn my beats on I know I am not holding the power button to long or to short. Apple won’t take my headphones to repair since they are 5 days over the warranty… Please help.

Fixed mine. I have a first-gen wireless. I tried these combinatons:

  1. power button + b-button 120s or 10s, usb-plugged in or not
  2. power button + volume down 120s or 10s, usb-plugged in or not
  3. power button + volume up 120s or 10s, usb-plugged in or not The only combo that worked for me was: power button + volume up 120s usb-plugged-in. Spend about 2 hours researching and trying out all combinations. Hope it will work for you too. ps. also tried
  • plugging-in/unplugging 3.5mm audio cable (didn’t work)
  • tried to update firmware (new computer usb-c couldn’t even detect the headphones)
  • reset using beats support page instructions (didn’t work)

You have a short circuit on the wires in the left side. It’s a group of 5 wires coming from the PCB to the 3.5 mm connector. Those wires get smashed by the vibration and start to short or simple opens killing a channel. It is a though job, but you have to open the left side, top and bottom, loose the cables (glued and soldered) and try to isolate the wires making sure they aren’t broken. It is a micro connector with 5 wires. The red one is the control that probably is shorting. blue and black are pos left and right and green and gold are the neg left and right.

I have the beats solo wireless 2 and for some reason I could not get the headphones to powers on—even after like 30 resets. I think this is some kind of glitch in the beats headphone themselves. I’ve noticed they will not turn on after I use the aux chord for a wired connection. However, I have been able to successfully get them to power up twice with this method. Plug them into your laptop using the USB chord **Note: I used the beats one that was included. Also I was on the beats updater website (you will need to download the software). Each time the updater was able to identify my headphones—not sure if this was part of the solution, but i did do this each time.Also plug in your aux chord into your computer and the headphones.While plugged up hold the power button for 3 seconds. **Note: You may be able to skip this—I’m only including this because this is what I did—not sure if it impacted it or not.At the same time remove BOTH the aux chord and the USB chord from the headphones.Lastly, blow into the the Auxillary port. —Again may be able to skip —but I did do this both times.

So I had a similar problem, my beats would only stay on if connected to the USB. Basically I thought I needed a new battery, so I bought for 20 dollars on eBay. But, I wanted to see if I can open them up and make sure I can do it myself. Very easy. Right ear cup, pry it open but try not to damage anything, and connect and reconnect the battery.

Hi Maks, Have you tried to reset them? The Beats support page has a KB page about it. https://www.beatsbydre.com/support/how-t… I hope this helps.

Omggg I found a solution when it flashes keep pressing the power button till it flashes all light again then go to your phone connect it and it WORK!!!! Omfggg I am so happy

Like when it press all white light then red light or a single light keep pressing it till all white light flash maybe you see a double white light pop up and pause try the volume down and power button press and hold for 10 sec again and then let it flash them lights and press power button again and it will flash all white light for connect and go connect with your phone and it work mine work omfgg

My beats solo 2 wireless won’t turn on at all it only turns on when I’m the charging cable but as soon as I take it off and try to turn it on it doesn’t come on I tried resetting it but the headphones won’t even turn on literally
