Tesoro Headphone Jacks
- Thread starter pablo61

I have had some 'snug' ¼" jacks on Tesoro's, White's, and other brands at times, off-and-on through the years. I believe it varies with the manufacturing process and some of the plastic barrels the plug goes through to get to the metal contacts is just very slightly out of tolerance. I just opened it up a smidgeon with a screwdriver or other tool/object, that just barely fit in the jack, snuggly, then I twisted it around several times just to fractionally enlarge the hole.
First I do try several different ¼" plugs from different headphones to make sure the issue isn't an oversized plug.

Didn't work with the dead spider and nest I had in one that I bought used..
Dried up spider was keeping contacts open. Got that one cheap, as it was advertised as "works with headphones only, not with speaker".. Easy fix with compressed air, but it took a few blasts to get it all out.

Great idea.
