Perfect solution for my headset

This part works great for me! Not wanting to throw away my favorite headset, I decided to at least fix it myself. Shipping was a little more expensive than I would have liked, but I can't complain. Pretty solid stuff. By the way, it's important to note that pin 3 is actually ground and pin 4 is microphone. I discovered this when playing music with pins 1 and 2 connected. When testing audio for ground it matched pin 3 jack (touch copper wire to metal). When I connected the ground wire to the fourth pin, the audio was severely distorted, confirming it was the third pin. To make sure pin 4 is for the microphone I just did a microphone test. I hope that the seller corrects his description and photo.

Pros

No soldering required! Use stranded or solid wire and a small screwdriver to create custom wiring jigs. Circuit diagram: PIN 1 - red wire; PIN 2 - white wire; PIN 3 - green wire; PIN 4 - black wire. OMTP standard: PIN1 - left channel; PIN 2 - right channel; PIN 3 - microphone; PIN 4 - earth. CTIA standard: PIN1 - left channel; PIN 2 - right channel; PIN 3 - earth; PIN 4 - microphone.
