Use this guide to replace the Beats Solo3 Headband (Model: A1796) if the headband isn’t fitting comfortably when using.
The headband is the main support. It connects both speakers, hoses the connecting wires from the left to the right sides of the head phone, and gives the rigid flex when the headphones are worn over the head.
To use this guide, be sure to have purchased the right part for your headphones at amazon.com. Typically, this device would be replaced, but this is a cost efficient way to bring the device back to live.
Power off the device before fixing to avoid any electrical failures.

Carefully partially remove the headband cushion cover. Be careful not to rip the two headband eyelets just above the screws on each end of the headband.

With the main part of the cover off, pull the head band cover up and out of the metal headband ends, exposing the screws underneath.

-
Unscrew all four 1.4 mm screws on the right and left ends on the underside of the headband using a T5 Torx screwdriver.

Pull the metal headband end out from the headband slightly, and disconnect the rubber band from the hook.

Remove the inner headband by gently prying the edges and corners.

-
Carefully peel up the glued wire in the headband.

Pull the headband out of the slots gently.
Be very careful when you pull the headband. There are small pin in the hinge mechanism and they will come out. You will need very small tweezers to put them back in and it is not trivial as the space is very limited. It took me nearly 1 hour to put them back in!

Put the new headband into the slots carefully.
But what happens after? It sounds like we might need to clue the parts back together?
