Expensive earbuds stop working on the right side unless connector is positioned correctly.

 

Have to leave for work in a few.

 

I can make a makeshift stint in the time I have.

Cut a piece of scent stick and electrical tape off.

 

Wrap around connector.

do what you have to do and find any kind of tape or napkins

i like electrical tape or duct tape but be sure to get all the loose blood away when you wrap it up

no need to waste a band aid on that paper cut

I used one of those binder clips to fix my headphones that had a wire that would only make sound out of both sides if positioned correctly.

Well I'm not in a rush anymore, is there a better more permanent solution to fix the connector?

I did that with mine and it's been pretty permanent, they've worked for like 2 months by doing that. And unless you want to replace the wire then there's not really a permanent solution as far as I'm aware.

Well yeah, would replacing the connector be feasible?

Depends whether the problem lies in the connector or the wire itself. Chances are you'll have to replace the entire wire or just buy a new set of earbuds. If you still have warranty on them that's also an option.
