really wierd problem! mono-jack stuck in ''record in''

yes i would like to do that too but i dont know how and how to solder it back.

bloody hell mates! i did it!
left toothpick with glue inside for like a 6 hours and i finally took it out.
i needed also something like big needle, its probably for checking if pie is good , dont know, just found it in the kitchen. whatever.
i used that needle to lift up one of the metal contacts, pulled toothpick and here's what i got.


shiiiiit quality, sorry.

that's my troublemaker. it was a good experience and maybe it's a good advice for someone who has the same problem.

cheers and all of you remember, that beautiful by masta ace is best song ever!!!!

wow, congratulations. i really thought you were crazy sticking super glue in there.

haha me too man. especially when i saw how my hands are shaking.

Congrats and well done You are ingenious to say the least.
That must be a weight off your mind to have your machine back to working order.

Ooh shit im mad at myself that i didnt saw this threat earlier. A sp head once removed it with a much saver method. Stil happy it worked for you but it was risky.

pilchard: yep, i feel like a newborn now! for a moment i had thought that maybe ill just put it in the wardrobe and buy 1000 or 2500


bloc: nice. that was one of my ideas. I would probably do that today, if glue wouldnt be enough good.

yeah, so stay away from cheap quality rca to 1/4" adapters.. this happens with those.

if you could find tweezers that are no wider than 1/4 inch that maybe you can pinch it.. but it's doubtful.

I suggest opening it up, and the thing that holds jack in snug (the metal that makes contact with the jack) well they are like clips that you can often pull from the casing of the jack. try to see if you can to let the bit out.
