One headphone does not work
I only listen to the tv in mono with one headphone, not in stereo with both headphones. I already checked the electrical connection between both headphones. I changed also the battery, but still the same. Any idea what is wrong and how to fix it will be higly appreciated. Thanks
Is this a good question?

Hi,
Have you plugged the headphones base station into another audio device (even a mobile phone to listen to music) to prove that the stereo is / is not working? It may be that the TV is not giving a stereo output, if so check if the TV has Volume 'balance' controls in its' audio settings, maybe 1 (L or R) channel is turned down. Have you tried a different stereo audio cable to connect between the TV and the headphones base station?

Thanks for your ideas jayeff! I plugged the base station to a stereo radio set and it also failed. I plugged other headphones to tv set and the stero signal was there. So I'll pick up a different stereo cable to test it again.

Hi,
If it still doesn't work with a new stereo audio cable it could be either a faulty stereo socket, a wiring fault or a audio channel path fault in the base unit. in any event the base unit would have to be opened to be inspected and tested.

I am having the same problem! Still not found any solution yet!

The same problem: one headphone does not work. Remains in mono mode even when I connect to another device. Mono speaker is perfect. The other speaker gives very very low voice volume. Will cleaning the balance knob with isopropanol help?
