Hi,
So my son broke off the headphones in the jack and I damaged the jack trying to remove it. I removed the motherboard to fix the jack and damaged one of the cable connectors. Specifically the one that has a little gray square the you flip up and the cable is close the the power port, its clear and has four wires. That little gray square on the connector for that cable broke and I could not get it back in. I see a couple of options...
1. I found someone on ebay that will sell me an audio jack. I could just glue or tape the cable back on and resolder the new headphone jack
2. I could just replace the entire motherboard, but I did not know if that was specific to the console, like the the operating system was on it and changing the motherboard causes some kind of error (kinda like when you change your processor on a windows machine). Can I replace the motherboard out right without any problems?
Thoughts? Thanks
