Left ear of headphones volume low

I bought IOGear Stereo Wireless Bluetooth headphones from Walmart.com and I just recently got them in the mail. I turned them on and they paired with my phone just fine. But when i listen to music with these headphones, the sound in the left earphone is about 50% less than the sound in the right ear. I adjusted the volume but it didnt seem to work at all. I called the company and they said to let it fully charge first. And I dont have other devices to test the product on. Any ideas as to what's wrong with it?

Reset your wireless earbuds by long-pressing the button, then reconnect it to your phone. If it still doesn't help, you may consider to change a new pair of wireless earbuds. Refer to this post for more recommendations: 10 Best TWS Wireless Earbuds

Out of the box or before using it, you have to charge the headset for about 4hrs or until no light on the headset (red if it's charging). Then try using it again play around with the volume. If you encounter the same thing then you have to replace it at the store.

My right earbud stopped working and ive had the product for less than 2 months... all the wiring looks fine and no physical damage is noticeable

Unfortunately the ear buds are not made to be repaired, your best option is take them back for replacement "hopefully they are under warranty"

The left and right ear bud work some times. and if i turn the base were you plug it into the device it coukd work how can i fix it so they can both work at the same time.

Probably can't. What typically happens is that the base of the wire gets stressed from wrapping the cord around you media player and it eventually breaks the copper wire inside of the insulation. You likely can not even see the damage, let alone repair it. Be more carefull with the next set, and might I recommend a set of AKG ear buds. I use AKG studio headphones and bought my little sister some AKG ear buds, very impressive quality very close to my studio headphones. AKG K 313

In recent days my headset (590A) has only been transmitting sound on the right ear via bluetooth connection, when I use the 3.5mm jack (connected to left ear) both ears work. Is there a fix for...

Your headset can be used as stereo headphones or a wireless microphone for a bluetooth enabled device like a cell phone or a computer. When you plug the headphones into a device with the 3.5mm jack the headset automatically turns into stereo headphones and disables the microphone(headphone mode). It sounds like whatever device your headset is connected to via bluetooth is using the wireless microphone protocol where sound only comes through the one speaker and the microphone is on(microphone mode). The bluetooth protocol settings of your device may have been changed accidentally. You will need to go into the bluettoth settings of your device you are using with your headset and change the protocol. If it is a cell phone you will need to go into the bluetooth settings in the settings menu. If it is a computer your can adjust the bluetooth settings in the control panel.

You can download the pdf file of your instruction manual for your headset here
