How To: Basic Soldering (Headphone Fix) 

Goes to show, teachers have a big impact on the atmosphere, and the atmosphere plays a big part in determining whether or not a kid wants to be there. I agree with Lazmedina. Maybe I wouldn't hate school if it had more teachers like you.

Thanks! I pressed play on this video and my headphones immediately started working!

i wish i had this class in high school i didnt learn all this till collage by my self and youtube nice video hope to see more young generation into the diy electronic

for me, it was a $2 fix for a $50 pair of bluetooth headphones.. 1st time soldering... being 50-50 - or +, i got it wrong the first time, switch the wires and worked perfect. I can't even say where the soldering tool came from. was in a toolbox i had.. :). thanks

Looked at like 20 videos and this was finally the thing I needed. Nice

seems llike a dope teacher!

i love teachers like this!

the outro was perfect. top ten rappers eminem was too afraid to diss

Thanks to this excellent video I was able to fix a set of entry level audiophile sony headphones by soldering in new headphone wires. Thumbs up for you guys!

very helpful video ...Thanks for the help...

Thanks this was a lifesaver

I wish my teacher was like this ,this mans so happy .

Great dude you obviously get along with your students

Awesome Teacher... Thanks for sharing this Vid...

extremely good teacher

been scouring the web for this video. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

It worked! Thanks so much sir! i can't afford a new one and i'd hate not to have music and youtube clips.

Awesome teacher!!!

MISTER YOU ARE A GREAT TEACHER

your a good teacher

This answers the question "how will i use this in the real world". I like it!

wow i like this video, i'll keep it on my playlist

i would've loved to take this class.

his voice is strikingly familiar to the guy who voiced in English Spike Speigal, and Onizuka Eikichi, but only in a higher tone

your good teacher, i must admit ^^

awesome teacher u ppl got....

I needed more teachers like you in HS

dam if my teacher was like this i might have passed tech

I want to do a headset repair...the wires on the cup are soldered to a small circuit board looking piece...but there also is this gob of yellowish hard stuff...do you know what that is, how to remove it, and do i need to get some more for the fix?

wish I had a teacher like that

Sometimes my connection is not the best should I play audio while doing it so that I know it makes a good power connection?

I can do this but what I want to know is can you add a second set of wires to the same point and have sound coming from both sets of wires

Thanks mate!!! I'll try that out with my creative headphone!!!!

Clicked on this video title expecting more screaming and egg throwing

I melt the small wire loop voice coil so how will i fix this voice coil?

How many watts is your soldering iron? Just curious...

thanks alott helped to repair my pro beats

my dad is quite good at it but ive never tried it my pioneer head set wire was tripped and now the left doesnt have a sound im tempted to do this but its hard houw shall i know which one is negative or posititve?

@Sufimancer No. It might barely work for a few seconds but good luck trying that...

my headphones only works on one ear and i checked my speaker it was ok it wasnt disconnected so what do I do? Do I remove from their and put back again? or... I've been checking it like 5 times now so what do I do?

what type of soldering iron where you using?

hey what id like to know is how to reconnect the little copper wires within the speaker itself or if thers a video tha shows that plz redirect me ,any ways thanx 4 ur tip

informative

"The only thing it will do is give you headaches." And not to mention cancer xD

OMG this school is fun!

what a great teacher and nice school too bad i live in canada otherwise i wouid come there and all the students look like there not even intrested look like they falling asleep damn man thats some crazy shit .

are any of the wires touching each other?

I have a set of headphones abd sometimes when the wire gets wiggled on the left side the right speaker will go out... What needs resoldering?

One of my earphones isnt working but wen i twitch the wire at the actualy plug, it starts workin a bit. Dus that mean one of the wires has come loose at the plug?

My headset sounds mono. How should you solder the left headset. Yours is in the right.

Nice!

is red positive or is the copper

That is the meaning of shouldering a headphone isn't it? moving the wire til the headphone works? its natural science. a friend of mine showed me how to do this but with a bigger headphone then the Ipod ones. I hope this video shows us what it is all about.

Wish I had that teacher.

can you use glue

he must be a cool teacher

Thanks for this video now I can save 50$

Yea thanx teach!!.... I got some sennheissers with red, green, and blue wires....war now?

What if the solder connection disappeared. I opened my headphones and I can not see where the solder connection is - there no silver mark.

boss video.

wow! I would take that class :)!! give him my pair of headphones to repair them haha

Does anyone know how to change this driver board?

thanks :)

10 dislikes got soldered in the leg and died. 218 got lucky with their life.

You kidding me? this guy looks way cooler than Tim Allen! =D

Dont u need to burn off the insulation on the green wire???

@chrisjohnhurley for what? The iron? if so nope i got one 2 day for 8 bucks

Strip back the wire to reveal both the inputs. It would be more complicated if the headphones are set up in a different way. Then take some sand paper and gently sand the two strips to reveal the copper shinny parts. I mean GENTLY. Then go do the steps he has shown.

How would you do this if the wire itself was cut?

i notice with ear phones, its the copper wire in the main wire thats broken. Not the bud it self. Your better off buying a new pair instead of fixing it.. unless it was expensive.

switch leads from neg to pos maybe thats it

I just want yall to know i was here 2024 😊😊😊

You can tell this guy grow up with Tim Allen and home improvement.

Interesting I only saw this AFTER melting the internal coil wire......... The speaker doesn't work at all. No resistance on the terminals. I wonder though to which terminals I should have soldered the wires, because my speaker has 4 terminals on it... Good video though. Good to know next time I try to fix speakers...

okay, now im off to fix my headphones. yay!!! im gonna take electronics next year

I need that tool there

this a terrible video. i was trying to fix my headphones but accidentally soldered my sack to my leg!

can I use hot glue?

The right polarity is easy: you just test it with a small battery. It must be pushed out when a voltage is ON. If it "sucks in" then the polarity is inversed. It's basics... And I'm not a teacher :)

Ha ha This guy has some Character.

@gordonjohnd yeah, it was sloppy work

My headphone still not work... i fixed it like u..... but only the voice coming from one side....i donno wts going on....

i actually did this on school once but i dont know shit about it no more and i didnt found it important, imma probably fix my 50 euro earphones somewhere up in a store

glee football coach Dot Jones

how old is he

how old is he ow shiney

Hello

,,mkay...;)

to teach thats why better on cheap stuff than not-so cheap stuffs

It's not bare copper It never is, it always has an isolation

Jack Like School =)

he's a sir or a time pass lol

hes making it look soo ez =( i cant solder when i do its all over the fking place

Tried soldering and melted my fucking copper part. So frustrated and sad because I got them working and soldered but they were aligned incorrectly with the screw holes and I had to retry to get them in the correct spot and got frustrated and left it on a bit to long trying to solder and now I’m 90% sure I can’t repair them. :(

...Im pretty sure if he turned down that fan he wouldn't have to yell..

Adios! Arrivederci, bye bye, ... los, ... ciao, ... go away. Missed a few of the other ways to say farewell.

You sound like mr mackey mkay..

why would you repair coby $1.50 headphone's?

looks/ sounds a bit like tim allen

50 dollar repair? :O I wouldn't pay more than 20 for repairing 200$ headphones. Seems very easy and simple.
