  • Open the back cover by gently lifting the right side, and rotating it to the left side (as if you were opening a book).

  • Use a pair of tweezers and grasp the black plastic portion of the headphone jack cable.

  • Plugging the new headphone jack into place will require some force. Make sure not to break the connector while performing this procedure. Grasp the black plastic portion of the cable and wiggle it into the logic board connector.
