If your W-King X10 has been functioning normally, but you are unable to charge the battery, you may have a problem with your charging port. When plugged in, the LED indicators at the top of the X10 should light up and blink white to indicate a charging battery and the level that the battery is charged.
After following our troubleshooting guide for potential quick-fixes, consider replacing the charging port itself by following this replacement guide.
Before you begin this repair, power off your speaker and disconnect it from the charging cable.
The prerequisite guide to remove the speakers requires soldering. For detailed instructions, refer to the How to Solder and Desolder Connections guide.
