Symptom:
Screeching noise in the headset.
Explanation:
Old or low-quality rechargeable batteries can cause a high-pitched screeching sound when the batteries start running low.
Troubleshooting:
- Install a set of brand-new alkaline (non-rechargeable) batteries.
- Use a new set of quality rechargeable batteries instead. We recommend using Eneloop, Duracell, or Energizer rechargeable batteries.
However, if the screeching noise persists after you install fresh alkaline batteries:
- Disconnect the Talkback Cable from your headset and Xbox 360 controller to see if the noise stops. If it does, then the talkback cable will need to be replaced.
- Try using a different Xbox 360 controller.
