Few People Know This Technique to Fix a Broken Plug
Step 6: Solder the Wires
Heat up the soldering iron and apply solder to the stripped ends of the wires. Then, carefully join the corresponding wires together with the solder, ensuring the connection is tight and secure.
Step 7: Apply Heat Shrink Tubing
Cut a piece of heat shrink tubing and slide it over the soldered connection. Use the lighter to heat the tubing until it shrinks tightly around the solder, providing insulation and protection for the connection.
Step 8: Reassemble the Plug
Once the wires are securely insulated, carefully reassemble the plug. Use glue (such as “La Gota”) to fix any loose parts and keep the structure of the plug intact.
Step 9: Secure with Electrical Tape
Wrap electrical tape around the connections and any vulnerable areas to ensure extra protection against potential shorts. This will also help keep everything in place.
Step 10: Test the Socket
After reassembling and securing the plug, reconnect the power and test the socket to make sure it’s working properly. Ensure that the repair was successful and everything is functioning safely
