Remove capsule from sennheiser e35 radio mic - Sennheiser Audio Players & Recorders

Hi there I had similar problems myself and the only thing I can think of is that there is a break in the wiring to the mic capsule or that the coil of the mic capsule is open. This is when a dynamic capsule is used. If you have a condenser type then check if there are no dry joints on the capsule itself or a resistor faulty. The amplifying FET is inside and it cannot be repaired. If it is a condenser mic, make sure you have a DC supply from the TX or whatever it is connected to. Does it have a silver button type battery and is it in good condition?

Hi
cordless mics consist of the following parts:
mic capsule- audio and copression amp- Xtall and RF section.
In your case RF is ok. Test mic capsule ( using an audio amp or simply connect it momentarily to a 1.5 vollt battery and listen for a "khesh" noise from your capsule. If your mic capsule is ok your amp and compressor section is either damaged due to a reverse battery connection or you have " cold solder joints" on or around the audio amp. E mail me if you want further information at: [email protected]

You have to wire the plug to eliminate the voltage sent by the sound card. I can't remember if it's the tip or the sleeve, so you'll have to verify with a volt meter. Use a 3 position plug to solder to the mic wires, just don't connect the wires of the mic to the one that has voltage on it

This is quite common with G2's, and really annoying!
If you are lucky, 50% of the time the red button is pushed inside the mic.
You need to remove the bottom section:
- open the battery compartment
- there should be 3 star-bit screws around the outside (remove)
- pull the bottom of the mic off

If the red button is not inside, they are available as a spare part from Sennheiser dealers.

Be carefull when putting the mic back together, it needs to line up correctly with the internal guides, forcing the base back on could damage the ribbon cable. when the line-up is correct it slides on very easily.

Best of luck.

You might want to check the other end as well. Take a ohm meter and check the wires to make sure their is a reading on both.The wire you speak of is called shielded cable and there should be no reading between the sheilding and the center conductor when they are seperated from the capsule. If there is a reading you have a short.To clarify, the outer sheild should read at or near zero when you check @ each end as should the center conductor ( the white ) wire.There should be no reading between the two (the sheild and the white) when they are unhooded @ each end. Also when the capsule is unhooded you should get a reading between the two terminals, if not the capsule is open and needs replacement.

it works its probably just that you dont have your drivers set up right same problem here with my usb mic you gotta go into sound and change the standard mic to the mic you want to use and if you have a web cam mic also hooked up you will want to disable web cam mic (not the web cam) in drivers these 2 mics are having conflict of interest

Ignore GazllFixIt...

If it's dead, a connection is already broken inside.

Much more unlikely is that the capsule is at fault - and if it is you can't make things any worse anyway.

Who cares if you break a connection when you take it apart - as long as you can use a soldering iron, it's easy enough to fix. If you can't, why would you be taking apart in the first place ;)

You'd be mad to send it to Sennheiser to solder 1 or 2 points then send it back to you! Waste of time and money.

Try learning something yourself, especially if it only cost $10 and doesn't work to begin with.

Remove the capsule assembly - desolder and disconnect the wires at the base of the mic (not from the capsule) yourself (see, opposite of last advice), then connect them directly to a cable with an XLR on the other end. Forget about ground for now.

Now plug it in...do you hear anything? If not, get a multimeter and check continuity between capsule and your XLR. If you have continuity, throw the mic out. If not, replace those wires. Still nothing - chuck it out.

If you are hearing something (it should sound absolutely fine, clear, loud etc), ...find the broken connection elsewhere...but also, be happy because it definately still works and is definately fixable and you can do it yourself.

it is very good brand first try to get ride off humidity and wet by putting it with some rice in plastic box and leave it for a couple of days(rice absorb wet and humidity).if it is not working good change the mic capsule.
