Does any one know why after a while your headphones only start to work on one side? Any way to fix this?

Well, i took eveything apart and i saw that one of the copper wires was broken. I re-attached to its other half and it worked. I think the twisting of the wire has a lot to do with it. Well i work sagain even after being completely dead on one side =)

Its usually a short in the wiring. It often happens if you wind up your cord alot, but there are other reasons it can occur too. The wires to one of the headphones either shifts out of place or is having trouble carrying a signal due to damage. Unfortunately there isn't really a fix. More expensive headphones are usually made to get around this issue, making it harder to receive a short, or making the cord/wiring replaceable. You may find a sweet spot in the way you can place the cord and it suddenly works again, but thats the best hope outside of replacing them.

It is an indication that the wires inside of the cord is broken. Either at the connector or at the headphone itself. Nothing you can do but go out and buy a new pair.
You might want to be gentler with the new pair.
