[Guide] Touch2 Headset fixing: pinout / wiring same as HD2!

---

Just had my headset's left audio channel die on me, it turned out to be a broken wire. If you have any similar issue, and access to a (small!) soldering iron, you can fix it yourself. The wiring seems to be same as with HD2, so you can take this guide by d4rkkn16ht:

Some extended hints from me, based on that guide:

These are the pin numbers on the connector:

1 2 3 4 ______
< = = =|______|-------> Cable

The cable has several wires inside, this is how it is composed from outside to inside:

a) outer rubber insulation
b) copper shield
c) inner insulation (paper or plastic)
d) 3 plastic covered wires (Red+Green+White) and several non-insulated (only painted) copper wires (Red, copper, blue)

Solder the painted copper wires together with the copper shield, the soldering will remove the paint and electrically connect all those wires. All those together will be the negative / return wire (-).

How to connect everything:

After you cut the cable near the connectors, and removed all the rubber/plastic there (the outer black rubber tube can be pulled away, so you can use it again later), you have the naked connector with the soldering points:

1 2 3 4 ______ 4321
< = = =|______|===- soldering side

1. Green plastic covered --> Left Channel (+)
2. Red plastic covered --> Right Channel (+)
3. Negative / Return (-)
4. White plastic covered --> Microphone (+)
