[QUOTE="walkerj, post: 873600, member: 9385"] Hate to be bearer of bad news, but you're either going to need a new logic board or just live with it because the microswitch in the jack is stuck on 'external'. I had this happen to my old Macbook and sure enough it needed a logic board. $1250 which was fortunately covered by Apple Care. There is a trick you can try though, if you can get something in there tiny to flip the switch you might be able to fix it. Or rapidly plug-in unplug a jack might free the switch. If not, oh well.
