Peter is talking about the tension on the two little plates that
create contact between the tip and sleeve of the plug. Sometimes the
older "flawed" jacks do not create enough tension and you end up
wiggling around your patch cord until the connection is made and you
have signal flowing. The "quick" fix is pressing down on the plates
with the head of a standard screw driver.
