Hey guys,
Im new here and not too experienced with electronics, although I have tinkered over the years.
I have an AItec Lansing InMotion 7 http://www.productreview.com.au/p/altec-lansing-inmotion-im7.html which Ive had for a few years. I have always plugged my mp3 player into its aux port at the back (as opposed to ipod dock).
After a few years the aux socket died and I decided to open her up try replace the socket. I have successfully opened up and removed the socket. However I noticed that the socket only has 3 pins.
I have only been able to find replacement sockets that have 4 or 6 pins. When searching I have looked for mini jack sockets. Im assuming thet physically its the same socket as if this were a headphane socket (even though its used for aux input).
Does anyone know whwre I can find a replacement socket that has 3 pins. Its also worth noting that the flan face of each pin is perpendicualar to the socket (hope I explained that clearly).
Any assistance is highly appreciated.
