I have a I mac 21.5 with a broken audio jack. Does anybody knows any way of disabling the port to restore the sound at least from the speakers

thank you

Don't work on iMacs, But couldn't you just desolder it? Perhaps look into changing the port?

try remove R6805 or R6806. they are headphone and SPDIF detection resistors.

You can also use a Kerplunk (or similar) stick and free up the contact inside the jack. Did this on a 17" MBP a while back. It's still working.

Jacks are not the same as the macbook pro and i cant find a spare parts. Also taking the jack out is not doing anything and there is not r6805 or r6806

thanks

I don't see the issue here, the audio jack is a separate replaceable part.....not on the board.
