Introduction
After several shock, my WH-1000XM3 becomes very difficult to power on.
It takes serveral minutes to push repeatly and/or continuously the power button.
So I decide to tear it down to see if there is a solution and better to be helpful for others.
Luckly my problem isn’t that complicate. Will do the rest teardown if anything comes up again(hope not xD).

Start from the left side. Remove the ear cushion.
-
Personally I start from the up-right side.

-
Remove all the screws, there are 5 short ones on the upper level and 4 long ones on the bottom.
-
Carefully open the back cover you can see the NFC antenna connects to the mainboard.
-
It seems that the wires tangled under the sticker cause the problem. I tried to sort them a bit and the power button come back alive.

Thank you very much leonw87. My headphones are working again thanks to your instructions. I changed the battery first, unfortunately without success.
After I sorted the cables on the board a bit, I stuck a tape over the connection points so that they are better fixed.
Great job from you.
THANK YOU
