My Problem
I was only getting sound from the left side of my speakers and headphones when using the iPod Classic headphone jack.
My Fix
Repair went smoothly, just a replacement of the headphone jack/hold switch. The primary difficulty was in removing the iPod's casing. There was also a little trouble getting the hard drive back into place properly during reassembly, but everything went well in general.
My Advice
The iFixit guide was essential, but I found the plastic opening tools to be inadequate when trying to remove the casing. I had better luck with a few sharp knives and computer repair screwdrivers wedged appropriately. Obviously, the iPod Classic case is a pain to remove, so use whatever does the trick for you.
