AUX port broken again

Once again, my AUX port has stopped working. Its not the fuse, seeing as the power outlets still work. Having to replace it for a second time seems odd to me. I'm considering doing a soldering it, as seen in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpQhX7fvjko I am not sure how long this quick fix will last. Any suggestions? Will soldering the faulty AUX port really fix the problem long term?

 

Do you use an ipod with your stereo or a non apple mp3 player ?

 

I've used a windows phone with it and an andriod phone. I haven't tried an ipod/iphone/ipad with it yet.

 

I was asking because if you used an ipod / iphone I was going to suggest just getting a USA Spec , really like mine more than I did using the aux input

 

Followed the instructional video above, and now my AUX port works again.
Very quick fix, we'll see how long it lasts.

 

My Aux Port is nonfunctional for the 3rd time, I don't want to replace it again or spend time soldering, what is the USA Spec, do you have a link to a thread or device please?

I use my iPhone for music and GPS ... Spotify/Waze

 

They come up for sale in the BST occasionally but the PA-15 Toy is the one I have

Get a new radio period. Mine in my 2010 isn't that great. If it's 70+ degrees outside the Damn thing cuts in and out and when you first crank the truck up it throws gang signs

 

Your radio cuts in and out ?

 

Yeah it doesn't work that well in warm-hot weather.

 

Huh , never had an issue like that

 

Had a new problem yesterday. The radio was changing stations on its own.

 

There was a big thread on that a while back

 

So, 6+ months later and the soldering job has held up just fine.
