Title: How to Repair Dodgy or Broken Headphones: Part-7
Post by: Md. Abrar Amin on April 22, 2017, 12:15:08 PM

Strip off insulation. Use wire strippers, or carefully run a knife around the outside of the cable. Remove ½ inch (1.25 cm) of the outer shielding. Extend the cut in either direction until you see a broken wire. This is the area you'll need to repair.
If your cable looks like two cables glued together, each one will contain an insulated wire (the signal) and a bare wire (the ground).
Apple headphones and other headphones with single cables have two insulated wires (the left and right signal) and a single bare ground wire.
