Hi. I have an old speaker. The tip at the speaker’s wire thingey broke off inside of my computer. Can you think of any ways to get it out?

Depends on what’s still there. At worst, someone will have to very carefully disassemble the computer’s case and push the piece out from the inside. But with some care, you might be able to use a bent pin to hook the broken piece, or if there’s a hole through it (those plugs have hollow spaces in them) thread the very tip of a sheetrock screw into the hole in the broken piece of plug and pull it out.

I’m hesitant to suggest any of these, because laptop computers–I’m guessing that’s what you’ve got–are exceedingly delicate and the best of them aren’t very well made, and so they’re very easy to wreck. But of course it can be done. If you don’t get any better answers, please do a better job of asking the question, and perhaps post a picture that shows the exact situation.

  1. If there is a small amount of the tip showing in the hole maybe you can get hold of it with small tweezers. If that doesn’t work here is another marvelous thing to try.

    Get a wood match, and a strait pin. Buy some super glue. With the pin dob a small drop of the super glue on the speaker plug tip. Then put a dob on the back end of the wooden match. Then touch the match stick to the speaker plug tip. It might grab it enough so you can pull it out.

    If that fails, here is one more. Find a powerful tank vacuum. use masking tape or what ever you can to make the end of the hose seal against the back of the computer. If you can get a good seal it just might be enough suction to pull the broken piece out of the hole.

    If that fails you better take it to a computer tech. I wouldn’t recommend opening it yourself. Lap Top computers are very fragile.
