John,

While replacing the headphone jack might prove difficult, you may be able to form the contacts that disconnect the speaker a bit and get it working properly. You will likely have to be able to decipher and follow the schematic to properly identify the correct contacts to properly accomplish that repair. Removing the left side panel will give you access to the 'business' side of the headphone jack.

It looks like it would be tough to replace the headphone jack.
