Suspension band and outer frame

Inspect comfort-band damage separately from the structural headband.

Confirm your revision

The headset rating label is beneath the right ear cushion. Hold the cushion frame when removing it; do not pull only on the fabric.

This is the PULSE 3D headset, not PULSE Elite CFI-ZWH2, the older Pulse Elite Edition or third-party headsets. Internal cards provide assessment routes where the available source is a teardown rather than a repair manual.

DIAGNOSIS & SERVICE ROUTE

Inspect comfort-band damage separately from the structural headband.

Signs to investigate

  • Sagging suspension
  • Cracked headband

Prepare your bench

  • Good lighting
  • Soft work surface

Diagnose, isolate, then service

  1. 01

    Switch off; inspect the band ends and earcup pivots without stretching them.

  2. 02

    Identify whether the flexible suspension or the structural frame is damaged.

  3. 03

    Match the exact attachment design before removal. The documented teardown shows anatomy, not a verified band-replacement sequence; use a technician for a cracked structural frame.

STOP POINT

Avoid heating or glue repairs near the battery and wiring.

BEFORE YOU CALL IT DONE

A sound frame supports both earcups without twisting or stressing the internal wiring.

Restore all covers, shielding and cable routing before powered tests. Keep each screw in its original position. If fit or resistance changes, reopen and inspect rather than tightening harder.
