HDMI Jack. Can it be replaced?

The HDMI cable on my Tivo came out and when I tried to replace it I noticed a pin in the jack was bent and the HDMI did not work anymore. Can the jack be replaced by the user and if so where can you purchase them? Thanks, Don

I would try bending it back with a needle nose pliers.

There is a tool for pushing wires onto pins in a connector. They sell them at Radio Shack. Buy one of those and slide it over the pin and straighten it.

Another option is to use a mechanical pencil (w/o the lead).

If you are unsuccessful in getting it working again, drop me a PM as it can be repaired with the right tools and experience.
