HP Pavilion g7 speaker issue

[ncrebel]

The right speaker is non-functional. The issue occurred after unit was dropped. I am absolutely certain it is not driver, software or balance settings etc etc etc... Is it possible that the connection was jarred loose somehow?

Hi,

Do test your speakers first.
- Right click on the speaker icon and select Playback Devices.
- Right click again on Speaker then click on Test.
- Listen and if only 1 speaker does play that means it's a hardware issue.
- You can try opening the laptop if your comfortable to check for it's physical connection.

Thanks Laptop_Nerd, I am semi-comfortable enough. I have downloaded the service manual, so here goes!
