Manufacturer-documented Reviewed 2026-11-09 · Revision 1
Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Exact WF-C510. Two live connections with no active call. This pause-first comparison does not infer a hardware cause or universally required takeover order.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: Switching between devices isn’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.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at two. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.

Are both intended sources currently connected, with no active call?
A saved source record is insufficient; confirm two live connections before comparing handover.
Look for: Choose only what you can confirm.
- If Yes, confirmed → Pause media on the first source
- If No → Continue with model-specific support
- If I do not know / cannot check → Confirm the missing detail first
