Plug in your device to ensure the cable works properly. If the charging is intermittent or doesn’t work, double-check your connections.
Tips for Durable Repairs
- Use heat shrink tubing instead of electrical tape for a more professional, durable repair.
- Avoid bending the cable sharply near the repair site; consider adding a small spring or protective sleeve to prevent future damage.
- If the connector itself is damaged, consider replacing the entire connector or the cable if repair isn’t feasible.
When to Replace Your Cable
Sometimes the damage is beyond repair—if multiple wires are broken inside or the connector is irreparably damaged, it may be safer and more reliable to replace the cable entirely. Always prioritize safety and avoid using cables that spark or overheat.
