Probably a bad headphone socket which will need to be replaced.

Short pins 1 and 2 on the headphone socket. if that brings back audio replace socket if you want to use headphones again.

Also check L6607-8 and detection traces back to U6201

Okay I shorted Pins 1 and 2 to each other and now it shows internal speakers and when I plug in headphones it works fine and so does the speakers.
Everything seems to be working fine so could I leave it like this and send it back to the customer?

Do you have donor board ? if so just replace the headphone jack. Its 10 minutes work.

 

[ytesfay80]

Yes. I've never replaced a headphone jack. Is it easy to melt the headphone jack when taking it off the donor?

I really don't want to replace it if I don't have to. Could there be issues down the line if I leave those pins shorted as they are?

 

[Gurmon]

Its not that hard. TIn the solder joints in leaded solder, then hot air the area and start to carefully prise when the solder starts melting.

If you leave it, its going to come back with headphones not working at some stage.

Okay thanks. I have replaced it and its working fine now.
