Headphone jack only plays out of one side.

I replaced the Lightning Connector Assembly in a second iPhone 5c. The first one went fine and works perfectly. On the second phone the headphone jack only plays through the right side of the headphones. I tried connecting multiple headphones that I know work on both sides with the same result. Is it possible that the headphone jack in the Lightning Connector Assembly is defective or could I have done something incorrectly in the installation of the replacement part?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hi

I would try cleaning the headphone jack as iv used many different headphones and this happens quite a lot with stuff that hasn’t been cleaned

Make sure there are not corrosion on any other the pins inside the headphone jack or the aux jack(headphone cable end)

One of the 3 bits of the headphone jack may be corroded as 1 does left,1does right,1does the mic,if one of these is corroded you might find it doesn’t work properly ,I have put a photo for a example

Try isopropyl alcohol for cleaning,that’s what I find works a treat!

Thanks:-)
