Hi all!
Im working on a Switch but im stuck at this (simple?) problem…
The audio jack is not working correctly, when i insert the headphone the audio continue to exit from the console, and the little audio icon remains on speaker mode.
I exluded a motherboard issue using another know good cartridge/jack doughterboard, and it seems all good and working.
I tried soldering a new connector jack with no results.
I desolder the little smd and, from left to right, they measure 0,9 / 0,9 / OL / 0,9 / 0,9 / 1,135Mohm, compared with the working one these values seems correct.
Im thinking the problem is hideing on this doughterboard, but i cant find it…
Can someone help me, please?

Afaik, the switch uses a mechanical switch in the headphone jack to detect whether a headphone is inserted or not.
My guess is that somehow that signal is not reaching the connector on the motherboard.
With a multimeter you should be able to trace the signal.
Maybe also check if the daughterboard connector if doesn't have any missing/bent pins.

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency

    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.

    In my opinion on all other factors they are pretty much the same.
