How we fix it
We test with known working headphones to confirm the socket is at fault.
We replace the socket and test the audio in both channels.
How long it takes
Headphone socket repairs are usually done within one to two working days.
Good to know: Pull headphones out by the plug, not the cable.
Questions
Could it be my headphones?
Sometimes. We test with our own first.
