Fixing A Zune Audio Jack

Is sound coming out of one channel in your zune 30gb? Does pressing against the zune in various positions help alleviate that problem? Watch this video on how to install a piece of plastic that will provide constant pressure against the audio jack, therefore solving your problems. Make sure to watch the entire video before attempting this. I am not liable for you being stupid.

Thanks for the help,MacGyver.You saved a random,helpless feeling from feeling my wrath due to a bad headphone jack!

@TOOOOOxFADED Totally, I surprised myself with how easy the fix is. It probably would have made a lot of people buy new ones when theirs can work perfectly normal. I did some math, if 4k of the 4239 viewers of this video would have bought a new MP3 player at 200$ a pop (which is a pretty cheap mp3 player price), it would have accumulated to $800,000!!! All of that money that could have been saved for a crappy bread clip on a dollar loaf, my mind is just blown.

Question: what can you use besides a guitar pick?

[ScottElwood32]

@demonwolfie Someone said they used the small clip that comes on bags of bread. Really anything that is plastic and thin will work.

Assume*  damn phone keyboard

Oops. @guitar7ify, i wish i could say yes but i have no idea. i would asuke no but hey, when i tried this my warranty was up so i had nothing to lose in playong with the insides. You could always test it out.

Thank you so much for this video!!! At first I was skeptical, but I kept playing around with it and finally found that sweet spot. So pumped I can finally listen to music in peace again! :)

Oh wow it worked! I thought for sure I was either gonna have to buy another Zune or get down to some nitty gritty replacing the jack.

Thanks

Now THAT is mind blowing! you also have to take into account the people that would have actually paid to get it fixed professionally. I fixed a few Sansa Clips with:tape,lined paper,a rubber band,and a rubber band used for braces.It's scary fiddling with $200 equipment though.

This solution worked great.  I used the plastic clip from a bag of bread. Thanks for sharing this.
