Most SteelSeries headset users will agree that these headsets are a mixture of great performance and incomprehensible design flaws. On top of that, some of their headsets are quite unreliable when it comes to connection stability. SteelSeries Arctis 9X is a perfect example. <\/span><\/p>\n

When it works, this thing is fantastic. I love it. Unfortunately, I’ve had so many problems with it. First, after less than a year of use, I noticed cracks on the hinges, so I had to reinforce them to prevent damage. Then, I had to replace the battery since it stopped holding charge.<\/span><\/p>\n

A week ago, a new problem occurred. <\/span>My SteelSeries Arctis 9X refused to turn on. I tried all the usual troubleshooting steps, but the <\/b>headset wouldn\u2019t turn on<\/b><\/a>. I thought it was the battery again, but it wasn\u2019t. The new battery I installed a few months ago was perfectly fine. <\/span><\/p>\n

However, one of the wires inside the right earcup was stuck between the earcup and its plastic cover, and it got damaged<\/b>. I must\u2019ve made a mistake while putting the earcup back together after replacing the battery. <\/span><\/p>\n

In this post, I will try to list all the potential culprits causing the <\/b>powering issue<\/b><\/a> with your SteelSeries Arctis 9X<\/b>. Furthermore, <\/span>I will list all the fixes I can think of to bring your Arctis 9X back to life<\/b>, including those that require you to open the headset and fix or replace internal components.<\/span><\/p>\n
