2 Now measure the black plastic sheath B including the clips on both ends.
3 Measure the barrel diammeter A. This is across the round face not the length and should be 3.5mm.
4 Subtrack the complete cable length from the black plastic sheath length and this gives you the exposed cable length. This is the most important measurement. Your old cable can be shorter but still have the same exposed cable length as ours.
