Hey guys,

My Xbox 360's rca cable , yellow pin broke off while taking the cable out of the rca input of tv. I was wondering what my options are at the moment?

Can it be repaired with just attaching a regular pin off of a rca cable?

Thankyou very much.

dude thats some shit because thats what happen to me today too. but on the white audio cable . i have the hdtv cables, i was wondering whats the option? buy a new cable or super glue this biatch up? also the pin is stuck inside the hole...should i just push it in? i cant take it out or how would i take it out?

DON'T push it in.. in the worst case, you'll end up with a loose piece of metal inside your soon-to-be-fried TV.
It'd be cheapest to just buy a new cable, and remove the broken off pin with some small pliers.

Alright, is there any other alternative other than buying a new xbox360 cable?

Find another RCA cable, old speaker cable, etc, and cut off the connector (give plenty of wire), then cut off the connector from your current cable, strip, splice, and insulate, you'll be good to go.

I'm sure it's possible, but it's most likely going to be a pain in the ass. Just swap it out with another one, or go to GameStop and get a used A/V cable for like $2.
