Source For Headphone Jack Replacement?

[Brian]

Hi All,

I seem to have cracked the headphone jack on my FLU, and I was wondering if anyone knew of a good source for small quanitites of this component. Scouring the web, I can only find it offered in quantities of 1000 or more!

Here is the part number:
TSH-3675(AJ332)

If anyone can hlep me out, I'd really appreciate it.


Thanks,

Brian

you should be able to use any old headphone jack as there is nothing special about them. just ripapart an old tape player or some thing.

Yes, you could if the pins were in exactly the same position, and the casing was the same size etc. Otherwise, you'd be buggered. Best place to try is somewhere like farnell or Maplin if you're in the UK, or maybe Radio Shack in the US.

Its not always easy to find something that fits well - you may need to do some hacking of the case to get it to fit.
