Question

My cat chewed through the AC adapter wire to my home phone. I fixed the wire but the phone won't work. Help!

Answer 1

Call the phone company after u buy a new phone and cord.

Answer 2

Buy a new phone and/or adapter. Fixing wires manually is never safe and can become a fire hazard.

Answer 3

Get Rid of that stanky Cat

Answer 4

Just get a new wire.....they're fire hazards once they've been chewed though.

Anyway, you should be more careful with your wires.  Try moving your equipment to a place where your cat can't get them, or at least keep the cat out of the room where you're running the power.  Your cat could get hurt or killed by chewing through those things.

Answer 5

Buy a new one!

Answer 6

That means you didn't really fix the wire......try again or buy a new one

Answer 7

Better check you repair work.  Do it over and make sure each wire is connected tightly and taped with a good electrial tape.

Also, wire colors must match......

Answer 8

ebay your ac adaptor. dont buy one in the store or radio shack because they will be expensive

Answer 9

My cat did the same thing to my mobile phone charger last week and I had to replace it.  The guy who sold me the new one gave me a good tip though, put selotape round the wire as they hate the taste of it.

You can buy a replacement wire from an electrical shop, or ebay is good.  Just put selotape round the new one to avoid it happening again!

Answer 10

easy. just buy a new phone
