Tone volume problem

my garmin has the tone volume too low, I spoke to assistance and they tell me that it cannot be repaired because it is out of warranty. Is there any possibility of troubleshooting or repair elsewhere?
Thank you

Guess not; what you could try is checking if the small holes that allow the sound of the beeper to pass are not clogged and clean these?

Thanks, how should I go about doing a thorough cleaning? I tried alcohol but it doesn't work

My crystal ball is rather trouble now, but if the tiny holes are really full of muck, pierce that out with a needle or alike. Keep downside down to let gravity help you and do not pierce too deep, or you might damage the speaker.

Aerosol spray electronics cleaner is probably the safest. Electronics cleaner is non-conductive, generally plastic safe and has the pressure of the aerosol to clean things out. I'd not chance a needle unless absolutely necessary. It might just be that the speaker is broken, but likely nothing to lose with trying the aerosol electronics cleaner.

Thanks, could this be the product?

What if the speaker breaks?
