How to repair headphone jack socket of a pc case by replacing it with the mic jack socket

This is a quick fix of me repairing my PC cases headphone jack socket without ordering any spare parts.
Tools you are going to need to do the same are;
1. Saughtering iron
2. Saughter
3. Flux
4. Fume extractor because you don't want to smell fumes from the flux and saughter, that's not healthy
Things you might need (extra)
4. Isopropyl alcohol to clean the flux afterwards
5. Tooth brush
6. Wick
7. Pliars
8. Gloves

Man every one i asked said no to me . But i just couldn't accept the fact that you can't fix a freaking headphone jack ? Finally found someone who really did it .

Cool

[@gabe_owner]

Exactly. It’s like two wires. If you can get the part and you have access to a soldering iron then you’re home free. People don’t act like they actually own the things they own anymore

[@rylanyoung2018]

The fact the the headphone jack can fail so easily in the first place is surprising to me lol

bruh i was gonna watch this vid with subtitles but then i started the video and my audio worked again😂😂

"A magical fix" lol

Brilliant idea with the quick & dirty exhaust fan!

Well played, Sir.

[@zachwood8562]

I broke mine when I stood up from my chair and it yanked the audio cord from the jack and broke the solders I switched the mic and headphone jacks think you do much

[@castiel7330]

Glad it helped

Dude same thing with me except I stood up while wearing my earphones and it yanked out by force and stopped working....

[@sroberts605]

Not one, but just several tugs, and now it's dodgy connection - someone should invent a connection that's not prone to this!!

I think, It is better to just interchange the cables at the motherboard port.

[@rylanyoung2018]

Damn that's a good idea lol

[@erhanzeynel]

Better than my shitty webcams. You need a pump for sucking solder. It makes lige easier

Well to repair shop it goes

[@timv5001]

Ok... Well I can't do that, so I guess I'll just have no sound forever

[@dave5194]

You could buy a USB to 3.5mm audio adapter or buy a audio cord extender and plug your headphones into the audio port in the back of your pc

I don’t have the power thingy that burns the metal becuase I hit my knee on my head phone jack park and bent the jack but it still worked so I didn’t bother but now it doesn’t work so now I am stuck

[@castiel7330]

I suppose you can borrow a saughtering pen from someone if you are willing to try this :) and it's very cheap you know, it's found in any electronics store

[@steveclark..]

I didn't think that you would get stereo output from a microphone jack, I assumed that they would be built just like the old mono speaker jack that older radios etc use? Are you getting sound to both ears??

[@castiel7330]

Yes I am and the mic jack and the speaker jack were identical in my case with same inner design and same connectors. And It's in stereo yeah

[@steveclark..]

@@castiel7330 I've just discovered that there's no need to do any swapping of these jacks if you have Realtek HD Audio Manager software, just plug in headphones to the mic jack and tick the headphone box option on the pop up box.

[@castiel7330]

@@steveclark.. In my case I got the asus xonar dg 5.1 souncard and I couldn't find any software solution to do what you did. Some soundcards doesnt support that I assume? Both solutions work :)

Bruh why not just move the pins around on the connector? Holy making more work for yourself.
