Hello,
Recently did some repair on a laptop motherboard. Had a busted
mini-jack for the headphones which I replaced (or actually swapped it
with an identical part).
Sound now comes out (in stereo), however at miniscule volume, even if
all the volume controls are cranked. The volume control does make a
difference, but it doesn't ever get above a minimally audible level.
The speakers built into the computer work fine, so I'm sure that the
sound board is okay.
My question is this - am I missing one of the connections to the jack
(like the ground, for example)? Does anyone know how these jacks work
from a circuitry level (as in what would cause the loss of volume)?
