My Fanatec handbrake is positioned on the left of my PlaySeat, and the cable is rather tight.
I forgot about the cable and moved the seat, resulting in damaging the 3.5mm plug.
I wanted to buy a new cable, but due to a mix of price and length I decided the try and make my own.
I bought a cable that had a 3.5mm plug (at a right angle so its not stuck too far out) on one end and bare wires on the other, so I could crimp my own RJ connector.
The bare wires consist of 3 wires, white, yellow and red.
I removed the old cable and realised it had 4 wires, white, red, green and black.
Now, the plug has 3 contact areas so I presumed only 3 wires, so not sure why it has 4.
Has anyone changed it over or made a new one and know which wire is which, before I use a continuity tester to check myself?
