RCA plug broke inside RCA input on amp

same thing happened on my buddy's amp. we took the cover off and actually removed the RCA connect. took it out somehow (he did it) and put it back in. resoldered connections

did that work out good?

He got it out. It make it easier to work with for sure. I'll ask him how he got it out though. My only dealing in it was taking out the RCA female

here's what he did... so the core of the RCA stuck in there is plastic. heat up a pin and shove it in there at an angle so that it melts the plastic core then let cool. then pull it out.

you will have to resolder the RCA female unless you don't remove it from the amp

i would say to use the same rca wire that it broke out of then put some silicon or some kinda glue on the inside where the pin goes on the wire then push it back into the rca input.. but be careful not to get any glue on the terminal.. then let it dry and pull that bitch back out! when this happened to me i used some pliers.. nd then it happened again and i used the wire and got it out.. then switched to new wires

I tried some glue but I'm scared to use too much. I tried a tiny tiny tiny screw and so far this thing is tighter than a virgin and not wanting to come out.

Not too bad at all, it wasnt sealed off from the back so it made for a quick pry with a bent up key-ring LOL.
