Hearing aid technology can be intricate and complicated; this makes it all the more frustrating when something goes wrong. There are many places that specialize in hearing aid repair, but before you send yours off to be fixed, you might want to try a few simple possible solutions at home. Here a few tips for dealing with a few common problems:
If the volume on your hearing aid has become inadequate:
• Check the temperature of the aid and battery; a too-cold aid can lead to decreased volume.
• Check that there is nothing blocking the hearing aid or battery, such as dirt, debris, or wax.
• Make sure the battery is secure in the hearing aid and has not been jarred loose.
