Could anyone help me figure out what I am doing wrong.
I have a cell phone headset and a headset for a walkie talkie. The plugs that go into the devices are similar but not exactly the same. The cell phone headset is more comfortable so I thought I would change the plugs around.
Both of them had two wires so I though that they would be able to connect together the plug of the walkie talkie headset with the cell phone headset. So I stripped both the wires and connected them together and it does not work. I tried swiching them over and it still does not work.
I noticed that both of the wires coming out have 2 sets of wires, a big bundle in the middle and smaller wires around that. I tried separating these and connecting them seperatly (making 4 bundles of wires) but this is not working either.
I then tried to reconnect the original wires back together and this is now not working.
Please help. I've now managed to ruin two good headsets .
