To prevent damaging your unit, take it to a service shop. They may have to
change the connector on the receiver.


A friend had that happen to his car audio amp..
Tried a drop of superglue on a toothpick,hoping to pull it out...no luck.
We had to take the amp apart,and found a little hole in the rear of the
jack,so we shoved a sewing needle in there and pushed it out.
Easy,right?
Well...easier than taking the entire amp apart,taking the board(s)
out,and replacing the connector.
