Right Channel Speakers of MacBook Stopped Working
Im using a MacBook Pro M1 2020 Model of 16GB RAM and 256GB Storage Variant.
It has been 4 Years since I bought it and there has never been an issue.
A Week ago, I have to visit my HomeTown upon an Emergency for 5 Days.
I never Shut Down My MacBook cause I use it Everyday so I close the Lid which keeps it in Sleep.
As Im being away for more number of Days, I have Shut it Down.
After Coming Back, I Tried to Turn it on by Clicking on the Power Button but it did not Respond. I thought the Charge has been drained(I have Shut it Down at 50%), so I plugged it in and turned on the Power.
A Crackling Sound has come from the Speakers for about 3 Seconds and Stopped.
Nothing showed up on the Screen.
I immediately thought it was Short-Circuited and Cut off the Power Supply. After a While I Plugged in Again and Tried to Turn it On but it did not Respond.
The Next Day I Kept it on Charge and Left it for an Hour. It Turned on but when I tried to open any App , it said "Your Computer was Restarted because of a Problem. Click Report to see more detailed Information and send a Report to Apple".
This Happened 4 Times and then it stopped. Everything was in Place and Working Fine except the Right Channel Speakers which Stopped Working.
I have Reset it , Reinstalled the OS, kept it in Safe Mode, Tested by Creating a New User, and Ran the Diagnostic Test from the Boot Setup which was Successful without any Issues in the Report.
I have contacted the Apple Support Team and they went through all the Troubleshooting and came to a Conclusion that it was a Hardware Issue and needs to be taken to a Apple Service Center.
I have never dropped my Mac. It stayed on my Desk for almost 6 Months without Moving for an Hardware Issue to Possibly Happen and I have never seen it stating a Report that there was a Problem.
Attaching the Report in Additional Text::
I never like my devices to be opened unless there is a Physical Damage and needs a Repair or Replacement.
I buy a new one instead.It is my Personal Choice.
The Same Happened to my iPhone 13 Pro Max where the Screen Completely Went White and then Turned Black which Turned out to be a Software Issue which Killed the Screen.
I have lost all my data which is also Fine.
It is a Global Issue and Apple has offered me a Free Screen Replacement even though I dont have an active Apple Care Plan.
The Service was Perfect and the device is working just like before but Still I Sold it and Upgraded to iPhone 15 Pro Max.
I Hope you understood my Issue.
