Introduction
One of the most common reasons that over-the-ear hearing aids stop working is a broken Receiver Wire, but not many people know that this is something that is easy to fix. Doing it yourself will save you time and money and it will lengthen the life of your hearing aid. Brand new Replacement Receiver Wires can be easily found on eBay, which is where I purchased mine. Once you know how to find exactly what you need and order it, this guide will show you how to replace the broken Receiver Wire on your Widex Evoke 440 Hearing aid.

Thank you so much for this page. It's the only place on the internet I found that gives the exact instructions for replacing the receiver link. Also the only place that explains exactly what the codes mean that are stamped on the receiver so that I can order the right part!
I'm so glad it was helpful; thank you for letting me know!
Sadly, no wires found on eBay to replace the one for the Widex Evoque 440 my dog chewed up.
Wondering if any of the later model receivers+wires are both compatible and inconspicuous ?
