Thanks for posting. For those having trouble getting the big circuit board to move away, the bit that you can't see here is that the big circuit board is partially held in place by the potmeter knobs, the nuts on the jacks and two small screws on the variax input. If it won't come out, check those.

I have a line6 amp with a bad headphone jack, or at least that's what I assume the problem to be. I had a look inside but figured it was more daunting than I wanted to pursue. But this helps because I can at least take a closer look and see if it's something else that's burnt out.

A buddy of mine has the Line 6 v 240 a little over a year old and it's lost out put / sound . yeah we tried the volume peddle . it was a finicky amp any way , the owners manual / guide is 1 page of nothing . I'm looking at getting the Boss Katana 100 . I had two Roland cube 30s they sounded great and the only weak point was the plastic input jacks . I can't solder at all . It never sticks.

Well in order for me to even faintly hear it through my amp I have to crank everything up. I tried plugging it into another amp and still nothing. It powers up but the input it output is just not working. What would you recomend I look at? Or what would your suspicions be?

Great job on bringing it back to life, Rob! Also, the power supply for the unit outputs an AC voltage. Would you know if a DC power supply can be used instead? I know that if a the circuit uses DC voltage and a bridge rectifier is used, you can technically supply the circuit with DC. Thank you very much.

I had to buy a replacement power input jack. The OEM unit is a cheap piece of garbage. Everything I own from Line 6 has required some type of repair or modification just to keep it functional. I've read a lot of complaints about strange volume and effects problems on both amps and digital pedals. My Spider Valve tube amp was cooking the circuit board @ around 350F so I had to put in fan cooling.

I will have the replacement jack in my hands in about 20 minutes and confirm whether this is the correct part and report the quality as well.

I have an issue with my Line 6 Pod Xt Pro. The virtual Reverb knob wiggles and sometimes gets so glitchy that you can not edit your preset. Or the screen gets stuck on Reverb type? Is this a reasonable thing to fix or a waste. It works, but when you connect the Floorboard it also conflicts with commands. Reverb switched off it switches back on. I took me forever to get sounds that I really like. If the repair is reasonable, I may fix it and sell it.
