Audio only in one earphone?

History

Hi,

I had a problem with the silent mute switch so i replaced the headphone flex cable that fixed the issue.

Now when i insert a pair of headphones audio is only in the left ear, i noticed if i pull out the headphone jack so its loosely connected both earphones work.

What could be the problem? Is it a loose connection in the headphone jack?

Thanks
