I replaced my lightning connector yesterday with new part; everything seems to work except for the headphone jack. The phone recognizes that there’s a headphone plugged in, and the controls work, but no sound comes out.
Even the mic works, so not sure if it’s a bad part or if there’s a bad connections somewhere; any help would be greatly appreciated!
Is this a good question?

Make sure connection on board side is getting full contacts it will only take 1pin to stop headphones from working.
If after you are encountering the same problem i would swap back your old port temporarily not need to remove full flex just click it in and test headphones.
This will allow you to determine if you have a faulty item.

Tried old connector as recommended. The old one works, but the new part doesn't. I'll request a replacement part from ifixit parts shop. Thanks!
That's great glad to see you worked it out

Count the rings on the headphone plug, 3 rings? 4 rings? try different ‘rings’ headphones.
