Emf interference in hearing aids

Since you are able to turn the left unit off, perhaps you are correct and the problem is the right unit. When they replaced the instruments, are you sure they replaced them entirely? Is it possible they just replaced the GUTS and reused the housing? Could the press button or the rocker switch or the spring contact that originally was problematic be the original? That is the only thing I can imagine would cause the charge cradle to turn off the device but not the button. Understand?

You said you have a good AuD? Maybe he can temporarily swap a loaner with you. But he does it so you know it’s a whole new unit. Takes under two minutes to copy the fitting to the new unit!

I am interested in this because I am a lifelong troubleshooter of gear!

Yep the problem right now is the righ unit. Yep they replaced entirely because they gave me whole new boces and everything, and i checked the serial numbers so yeah they’re new.
Nope because my older housing had black color and these ones are silver.

But yeah i get it i wish it was a faulty bottom but sadly is not.

Yeah he can but that is just temporary cuz i have to find the problem of this ones and i already went through the process of borrowing a ha until the technicians “solve” the problem lol.

Yeah i see that i appreciat u my man cuz i also like to troubleshoot the tech i wear and use.

Quick update i will follow the advice of white hat and i will isolate every source of bt for a while just to see if something like that is causing this random mute.

I will tell u guys how it goes the next few weeks.

When the HA’s were replaced, were the receivers replace? If they were, ignore the rest of my message, If not read on
I don’t think your problem is a EMF problem! (have never heard of a EMF problem with HA’s)

As a DYI’er I would swap the right and left HA’s (this requires changing the receivers to the other aid ) and see if the problem is the HA or receiver.
Since we don’t have your audiogram … I don’t know if you would have to re-program the aids … or if you loss from right to left is similar, so it would be OK for a test. ??
I do know that my Resound Nexia will not accept a R/L receiver swap without reprogramming.

I have had similar problem with one set of HA’s , and it turned out to be a problem with the microphone in the one aid and when switch from R to L the problem moved to the other side.

Wow interesting did u know what kind of hearing aids were used?

It’s ancient times…about 1980? plus or minus. So I’m guessing, but not knowing, if they were analog. I could be certain that the car had fuel injection. I have heard that some Mercedes had bad issues with wiring harnesses

Mick was an extraordinary mechanic and service manager.

Hello Everyone is been a long time. As you may know the problem that I had persisted in these last couple of months and I finally discovered the problem.

The problem was that the Receiver that the technical department say it was in good condition wasn’t, and it was such a faulty and tricky receiver because the ric will work really good without problems for a lot of time but when something inside the ric stopped working correctly my random mutes occurred again and again and again.

I manage to prove that it was the receiver that was faulty with my hand (how? As my audiologist say it to me in that moment), by grabbing the ha and squeezing it like a fist just to cause reaction to proximity of course I wasn’t squeezing it to damage more like closing my fist and open it several times and boom my ha was back in action. My audi was perplexed and finally agreed to change my ric. And so far so good, now i don’t have random mutes in my right hearing aid.

God it was such a relief to have the solution after more than a year of bad hearing and worries.

Than you to all of you who helped me with ideas, solutions and different outputs to try new things with my ha and I appreciate that you guys take a little bit of your time to look through my problem.

With deep gratitude,

Dan
