Lost the sound in one speaker.

When I move and bend the cord that goes into the phono plug, it comes back occasionally. Evidently one lead is broken.

Is this a DIY job to fix?

Not covered by warranty any more.

I have fixed earbuds with that problem before but it never looks good.

If the point is on the cord, you could try with some black electrical tape.

I had the same problem with mine. They broke 3 or 4 times during 2 years in the exact same place. The cord design is idiotic. Even my white apple earbuds last more than twice as long! I complained and with the help of Allmänna reklamationsverket got a full refund.

Good that ARN could be of help there.

I have had the headset to long, to claim any warranty or so.

Probably not worth the effort to try and put a new mini phono jack on.
