What to Do When a Bluetooth Device Keeps Disconnecting

Troubleshoot intermittent Bluetooth audio or accessory connections.

Quick Answer

Charge the device, reduce distance/interference, remove and pair it again, then check Windows and Bluetooth drivers.

Step by Step

  1. Check power, cables, wireless connection, and any physical switches or indicators first.
  2. Charge the device, reduce distance/interference, remove and pair it again, then check Windows and Bluetooth drivers.
  3. Test the device again before making additional changes.
  4. If the problem remains, check Windows Settings and Device Manager, then use the manufacturer's official support information for the exact model.

If That Doesn't Work

  • Change one thing at a time so you know which action fixed or caused the problem.
  • Avoid downloading drivers or device utilities from unofficial driver-download websites.
