Exact Shure AONIC 50 Gen 2 with a Bluetooth source. The original Gen 2 buttons have stopped responding. This is the non-clearing hardware power-off, not the seven-second pairing-list reset. Reversible checks only; no factory reset or pairing-list deletion.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: Buttons, touch controls or wear detection aren’t working.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
