Wires

nuromantix

I just accidentally cut the wire that came with my Bela that goes to the audio in/out.... with a kind of 3-prong socket on one end and a stereo mini jack on the other. Please can you sell me one or tell me where to get one?
Thanks!

I think the best option for you is to recover the cable you cut. These are unshielded wires, so you can easily solder the two ends back together.
If you desperately need a new Molex-type connector, then here you will find more info on the part number (you'll need matching crimp terminals).

Otherwise, drop us a line at info@bela.io .

I cut it right by the molex 🙁
I meant to cut the other end to solder on 1/4" jacks but just had a brainslip.
I'll email, thanks.

You could take out the old crimp: gently push on the crimp from the opening at the back of the connector with a flat-head screwdriver while you push out the crimp from the bottom of the connector (push it in the same direction as if you were pulling the wire). Once you have the crimp out you can either try to release the existing wire or just solder on top of it a new piece of wire. Place the wire and the solder at the far back of the crimp so that it does not interfere with the operation of the crimp. There should be enough space in the plastic housing to accommodate the crimp with an additional solder blob.
