No audio from product | Bose Aviation Headset X
If you have ever unplugged the microphone cable from the headset, disconnect it again and check for debris or damage at the connectors.
Make sure the connectors on the cable and at the headset are both free of debris (dirt, lint, dust, etc.) or damage, which could prevent a proper connection. For more info, see Attaching or moving the boom microphone on the headset.
Check the volume setting on the intercom/radio.
Adjust the volume knob on the intercom and/or radio and listen for a change in the volume level.
Check the audio panel settings.
On the audio panel, adjust the squelch setting to match the headset mic level. Open or close the squelch setting while speaking into the mic until the mic signal is clear and consistent. Some audio panels have an Auto-Squelch (VOX) feature which can still be manually adjusted using squelch controls.
Be sure the volume level is turned up for both earcups.
On the headset control module, check that the volume knobs are both adjusted to the desired level.
Plug in a different headset.
If available, connect a different headset to the aircraft to determine if the issue is related to the aircraft panel or its settings.
Connect the headset to a different panel jack or, if possible, to another aircraft.
Non-TSO equipment, worn jacks/loose connections, or incorrectly wired jacks (i.e. reversed stereo or mic / ground wires) in the aircraft can cause issues. If available, try connecting the headset to another jack in the aircraft or to jacks in a separate aircraft. If the headset works fine when connected elsewhere, the panel jack or wiring to the jack is the issue.
Disconnect all other headsets connected to the aircraft.
Unplug any other headsets connected to the aircraft intercom. If the issue goes away, it is related to another headset. Reconnect the headsets one-by-one to determine which, then check the settings for that headset.
