FIXING JBL TUNE 120 tws - Left ear piece not working (how to)

This video explains how to fix the left ear piece of the JBL TUNE 120 tws wireless earbuds not working.
Make sure to disable the bluetooth feature of your smartphone e while attempting this fix!
First turn off both ear pieces, by pressing their buttons for 8 seconds.
Now turn on the left ear piece by pressing it's button for 5 seconds.
Then press the button 3 times quickly. The ear piece should now blink in blue and white.
If this is the case, now turn on the right ear piece by also pressing it's button for 5 seconds and then press the button 3 times.
After a few seconds the two ear pieces should now be connected and you can hear audio on both sides after connecting them to your smartphone.
Good luck!

How many times bro ? I’m still trying. But they won’t connect to each other. I hear sounds in left earbud. But no music.

[@606films9]

It’s my right earbud. Halp🤣

[@hiteshtandel8755]

in left earbuds don't make the jingle sound when turn on right earbuds work fine don't know what to do and how to fix it need help with this

[@Paul94096]

I got these as a birthday gift, caught with them for almost 2 hours to work. The left would work the it would just cut out maybe after one or two songs. Found this video, his technique works. You have to do it over and over again, but eventually (hopefully), it’ll stick. Mine work well now. Thank you. Just keep trying it, eventually they will get in synch.

[@kassiopiajudkins2722]

This worked perfectly on my first try! That's an accomplishment for me considering I'm terrible with technology. I really appreciate this video and the clear instructions you gave. I also used your trick of cleaning the charging prongs and base with a toothbrush. My earbuds seem to be charging like new. So far there's been no need for me to wiggle and push them around in the case to get a good connection. Thanks again for this tutorial.😊 Edit- Here's a quick note regarding your instructions. In the video you say to hold the button for 2 seconds but in the description you say to hold the button for 5 seconds. I don't know if that makes any difference but I thought I'd bring your attention to the discrepancy.

[@zeekawesomecus917]

I have the 125 but this still worked for me. After finding a billion other "solutions" that didn't work, I finally found this and it worked perfectly. Only difference is I didn't have to tap either earbuds 3 times, they just automatically went into the blinking blue and white mode for me.

What about unrelated buds? Two buds, left and right but from two different sets of buds

[@MegaSafetyFirst]

As long as both buds are from the exact same model they will work together. Different models can’t be paired.

[@parveensharma4245]

Superb mate.. thanks a ton!! Had watched so many videos before I came here.. the master point was to press each bud 3 times in a rapid succession which I couldn't find in any of the other videos.. I followed the steps exactly in the same fashion n bingo it made my day 😊 cheers mate 👍🏻

Brilliant! I had a guarantee somewhere which I was going to search for so I could get them replaced but I thought I’d look online for some tips first. Worked to perfection, thank you!!

[@vlodko62]

Thanks! It took me a few times to get it right, but I'm listening with both ears right now! I realized that the bluetooth on my laptop was on (even though I had paired the earbuds only to my iPhone). I turned the bluetooth on my laptop off, and it worked like a charm.

charge the case, and the headphones, whilst the left and right ear pieces are inside the case. then in the case after a while turn the left one first, if it works then turn the right one on also

[@karthikairam9]

Thanks a lot mate. This solution also works for JBL Tune 125 TWS 👌🏻 In my case, it was the right side earbud not working 😉. It was because, somehow both earbuds unpaired from each other (I only realized this issue after seeing ur video). Then onwards, only the left earbud was getting paired with my mobile, but the right earbud kept on in the pairing mode and was not discovered by mobile at all. After following your instructions, I was able to pair the earbuds each other and it has solved the problem. 👍🏼👍🏼😇

[@christophergcrespo]

Whenever my left one turns on it immediately makes the low battery noise. It doesn't seem to charge for some reason but the light comes on in the charger but is a steady light. Then it would turn off as if full, then will do the same making "low battery" noise and turn itself off

[@terryharris2805]

Took mine back because of that could never get it too work smh

[@christophergcrespo]

Now it's happening to the right now.. seemingly alternating which one charges or not. It's so strange and annoying. I'm thinking maybe the charger/case itself is damaged from falling a few times, but also maybe that it could be the metal rods themselves .. I try cleaning them and they seem more responsive afterward for a time

[@squabblewobble2472]

I did this and my left earbud was still silent. Out of fustration I decided to give the earbud a gentle smack. For some reason this worked and I was able to hear from it again but it turns out whenever I apply gentle pressure on the earbud it goes silent again and needs another smack. Meaning that even just me putting the earbud in my ear is enough to make it silent.. Any fixes?😕

[@krizellezara6329]

Hi guys, for those whose left earbuds still don't work even after doing these steps, you can try to do this. TAKE NOTE> Make sure that your earbuds are already paired with your phones before doing this: Firts, turn off your bluetooth, then put your earbuds again in the case. Second, turn on the bluetooth, then wear your right earbuds (it will automatically turn on and connect with your phone once paired already) leave the left earbud in the case. Wait until you hear the beep signifying that you are connected with the phone's bluetooth. Third, wear the left earbud, it will automatically turn on as well once you are wearing it, wait for the beep signifying that you are connected with the right earbud. That's it. Your left earbud will now work fine.
