My car radio, an after-market addition which came with the car when I bought it, had been troubling me for some time. Specifically, the auxiliary jack was broken, so that it would constantly drop the right-hand channel from the MP3 player.
So today I tried to take the radio out and fix it.
Alas, in my haste to take the front off the radio so I could access the port fully, I pulled even though something seemed to be resisting. Suddenly, the front broke free of whatever was holding it...accompanied by a little snapping sound.
On inspection, I had managed to break the auxiliary jack (i.e., the part I was trying to fix) away from the circuit board completely.
Way to go, Gronk.
In other news, a sound system installer has just sold a new car radio and set of speakers.
