Default Re: Telex Repair

It's probably broken right inside, or just past, the connector. Take the connector apart; there will be four wires going places. If it's like RTS wiring, the microphone pin is 2, I believe. If all the wires are still attached, then it's probably a break in the cable just a few inches back of the connector. If it's a broken joint ("high impedance air gap"), simply resolder it to the pin it came from. If not, try cutting the cable back a few inches before the connector and rebuilding it.

Failing that, then it could be in the headset itself. A PH-1 is easy enough to find...
