Guide to replace the cable that powers and connects the headset to the user's computer or gaming console. These cables may fray after long periods of use or break after being mishandled and need to be replaced. See our troubleshooting guide.

Make sure to completely unplug your headset before attempting this guide. As well as working on an anti-static surface.
