If your laptop isn’t producing sound, or if the sound is distorted or intermittent, your speakers may be faulty. Be sure to troubleshoot any speaker-related issues before attempting to replace them.

Make sure to disable the internal battery, power down your device, and disconnect from any external power sources before you begin.
