I was wondering if anybody has replaced the receiver on a Starkey Halo 13. I ordered a replacement receiver for mine on ebay because I had damaged it, and it is not clear to me how the receiver unplugs from this . It’s possible it just needs a good pull but I wanted to see if anybody knows for sure (I don’t want to do any damage to them if, in fact, there is a lever or button that that unlocks the receiver from the socket).

Turns out it basically is just “give it a good pull”, dangerous as this feels. I removed the battery cover and there wasn’t an obvious lever. Ended up finding a couple of videos that helped: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Tuvc_6Wa7k206 and https://starkeypro.com/products/wireless-hearing-aids/halo-2/ric-13247 (“Receiver Removal” video). I kind of wish that there was a lever and process that felt less forceful. Needed to hold the receiver wire with a shirt for it not to slip. Anyhow, thanks. Hopefully those videos help others.
