If it has one yes, otherwise just for anything that will fit.

Would you search from part numbers on the actual jack plug John?

Open it up, find out exactly what the jack looks like then you'll get one from maplin/ebay/rs

Oh. Well I need to look for a replacement. Any ideas where? What to look for? Don't care if it takes me hours.

Would rather not spend it but if they can repair it back to new / with a new part etc then it is something to think about.

for 60-80 all they'll be doing is soldering a new one on, depends how handy you are with a soldering iron.

Being a clutz I have accedently tripped over the wire when listening to my Ipod thus bending the inner jack plug and now the sound when coming from the port isn't 100% clear. Sometimes only coming out of one speaker.

See picture below.






Is there anyway of repairing this or would you bite the bullet and pay for it to be repaired by a specialist? Got a couple of quotes ranging from £60 - £80 so its not a huge bill but all the same, if anybody knows of a way or "How to" I'd very appriciative.


Thanks,

Joe
