Can You Fix A Cut Headphone Wire. Hello Welcome to my fourth installment to my Headphone Repair series. When youre ready heat the joint and add some solder.
Try to get a good firm wrap without knotting things up and perhaps causing the metal to break. Cut the cable and prepare the wires. Then apply a few drops of solder to get it properly.
A lot of time a short can.
You only need to wrap two of the wires in a thin pre-cut piece of electrical tape. Cut off the broken headphone jack about an inch away from the end. Also depending on the the type of transition cable the headphone company used. While you are cutting it just cut at the point where lead meets the plug.
