DIY Build An Audio Cable (cord) With 3.5mm Jack - Easy Guide

You can easily build your own audio cable with its 3.5 mm (8") audio jack to be used with your headphone.

you can build it following the below steps:

- Open the new headphone plug you have by unscrewing it, then put the second piece of the new plug into the cables you sliced (as shown in the below image)

- Each cable should be connected to its associated terminal of the new jack plug, simply slide it into the terminal hole as shown in the image and wrap it around the terminal for few times tightly.

- Solder the twisted cable on its place with the plug terminal and be sure that it is fixed well and solid.

For a more proper way to identify which plug terminal corresponded to which plug metal section, we should use an AVO meter (or multimeter) and set it to ohms to check that perfectly, but since this is a very simple easy tutorial on how to replace a headphone plug I don’t want to make the process complex for average users.

this is great thanks... however.. any tips for just improving the connection between the port and headphone aux cable without totally rebuilding one. kick ass to know and see it done so well though i love learning even when not about my primary objective... so thank you, very grateful. now... i was thinking perhaps there was a way to replace... or even better just treat or tinker with the male end o ring ? any advice for some short-cuts.. im in robotics for school... THIS IS MY MUSIC TIME lol thanks
