Hi,
I purchased a pair of noise cancelling headphones about a year ago and only used them once. Worked a treat (going there) on the way back the right ear did not work.
So I thought nothing of it until I got home, at first thinking its possibly the battery going a little flat. In the cupboard it went
Anyway fast forward to yesterday.
I decided to open up the right ear to see if it was in fact a wire that had come loose. Which it was.
The problem is that the wire is about the thickness of a hair. I have located where it came off from but am too frighten to tag it back on using solder as being so thin am certain that the heat would most likely destroy the wire. Also the surrounding wires are rather close by and may end up destroying those instead.
Would conductive adhesive work in this case and any special precautions to take.
And is it like solder with respect to hardening.
Any suggestions would be invaluable.
(I actually fly out in two weeks time and would like to fix it before then if at all possible). Cannot justify forking out the $$ to get someone to fix it if I can at least attempt it myself.
Thanks for any help or suggestions
