GlennP Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Hi, Just done a repair to a Sound Devices SD302 headphone socket. Was a fairly easy job. SD supplied the part to do the fix. Part numbers are on the pics. Remove side panel and XLRs from the SD302 and you should have enough space to work. The original socket had its PCB connector glued to the receptacle on the board. This glue comes off with a sharp flat driver. simply install the new PCB connector and do the reverse of the dismantle to re-assemble. Only thing I had to do was trim the heatshrink on the new socket to make it fit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundtrane Posted June 6, 2020 Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 <This glue comes off with a sharp flat driver. > Dangerous... Instead - dab some IsoPropyl Alcohol on it. Wait 5 seconds, it will come off with no effort, using a pair of tweezers. Recommended method from SD service dept. Been doing repairs on SD stuff last three years... Use a glue gun on the new Board connector... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s that way in all modes and I’m certain it isn’t the cans. Does this sound like something a headphone jack replacement would fix? Actual levels out are fine it’s just when monitoring via the headphones jack. -Walter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Reineke Posted June 8, 2021 Report Share Posted June 8, 2021 I would kind of doubt the HP jack if different sets of HPs exhibits the same behavior and no visual damage or feel of the plug/jack connection is apparent. Call SD directly and ask them, they have always been helpful in my experience and their customer service is legendary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
