[QUOTE]Originally posted by Grokca: [QB] Changing a cord is really very simple, you might not even have to change the whole cord. First check the cord for any obvious nicks, cuts, squashes. Second if you don't find any, position the cord where the tb works fine, then wiggle the cord (nearest connectors, or where it goes into the TB) and see if you can get the TB to stop working. If you find the area you may be able to cut the cord and spice it back together. If this method does not work or you feel better about replacing the whole thing, Open the tb up and determine how many wires are in the cord. You will also have to determine where the wires go on the pinouts, at the connector. Go to an Electronics store and get a peice of the required cable, with a connector already on it would be preferable, and remake the end needed to connect to the tb itself. Or if the tb end of the cord is soldered to the board inside and you don't feel comfortable soldering to the board, then just cut the cord inside the tb(a cord inside is usually protected from breakage) and spice the new cord to the old one.
