I read these instructions at another site online and thought it would be nice to have a video. This was filmed by my son Cam, and I was the director. :-)

My husband ripped the cable out of the TV in a hurry and snapped off all three male ends. I was panicking that I'd either have to pay for an expensive repair, or just never be able to connect my XBOX again. I turned to Google for answers and your video was the first to pop up. I had already tried using a nail to get them out, but hadn't thought of heating it with a lighter! It worked like a charm! Thanks so much for the tip!

You are a lifesaver!! I have been driving around with a broken RCA plug in my car's built-in DVD player for almost a year. This is so much easier than the other toothpick/glue suggestions. I removed the broken plug is less than 30 seconds! Thanks for posting this tip!!

I was just certain this would not work for me... but it did! Only 3 years without being able to plug in RCA video! (Ony S-video and computer). I am with Omair... God bless you, your son, and certainly America. Seriously (well, the blessing is serious too) thank you for taking the time to video this ... couldn't quite follow the instructions on other sites.

Cheers guys......this worked a treat.....I used a straightened out paperclip ....the concept is the hot nail melts the plastic in the inside of the pin in the TV......when it cools it hardens around the nail and bingo!...you can slide it out...Well done fellas

Absolute legends - saved my speakers. On this I would say is that you have to pull it out very slowly and on a slight angle, the inside of the rca can separate from the metal coating, leaving the metal in the female plug, and if that happens you're super fucked! Thanks guys
