I have an older cobra 19 dx the mic cord got pulled out its a 4 pin ther is a purple,red,black with yellow and a bare wire i would like to know wich one goes where?

1audio. 1red
2shield. 2shield
3receive. 3blue
4switching. 4white
5transmit. 5black

Hope this helps

it doesn't make a difference what color wire it is as long as the wire is connected to the function it is going to control If your mic has a red , blue , black , and shield wires but your radio isn't set that way you have to set it to the way your radio is . you have to find out where ground is then audio in and audio out then the last is the shield.

• With the switch sitting as it is in the picture below (actual switch recessed tho the right. Soldier the wires in this order.

1. Black
2. Red
3. Lite Blue.
4. Dark Yellow (This yellow wire comes from the mic cord itself)
5. Shield.
6. Lite Yellow. (This yellow wire runs off to the side of the mike to the electrical components inside the mic)

• Standard 4 pin Cobra mic tip to run it to that Connex.

• Pin 1 - Shield.
• Pin 2 - White.
• Pin 3 - Red.
• Pin 4 - Black.

• If you have any comments please feel free to leave them here.
• Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

Here are the Pin outs for different mics that will work with your radio. If a wire is not listed then you cut it off. It's best to keep the wires as short as possible no longer than a half inch is suggested. Normally the Cobra pin out is standard for most radios.

Hello,
Here is the wire diagram for several common mics in relation to a 4 pin CB. Most recent 4 pin CB's such as Midland, Cobra, Connex, Uniden, etc can use 4 pin mics. The wiring is actually depending on the mic rather than the CB so long as the CB's are 4 pin as well. Once you go back to late 80's the 4 pin design was a little different. Anything new it is simpler.

Pin-1-Shield-Ground
2-Yellow-Audio
3-Red-TX

4-Black-RX
notes:The blue & white wire not used.

Pin 1 is shield, thats the bare wire wrapped around the mic audio wire
pin 2 ic mic audio [usually white)
pin 3 is transmit or push to talk usually red
pin 4 is recieve or speaker complete usually black

I opened up one of my Cobra HighGear mics and here is how it is wired:

1. shield (Bare copper wires) --- twist them good and tin with a little solder

2. audio (White)

3. transmit (tx) (Red)

4. receive (rx) (Black)

Blue and Yellow are unused.
