i bought these small 1/8 inch stereo jacks that are metal and not plastic which are shorting out to the chassis encloser box
The problems i'm having is
1.) They have a metal threaded area that is shorting out to the chassis
I tried using electrical tape on the inside and outside of the chassis to keep it from shorting out , but the inside of the chassis where the jack barrel goes through is shorting it out , how can i put insulation to keep it from shorting
out?
Its really hard finding plasic nuts and washers for 1/8 inch jacks , i only can find metal ones
Another problem is:
2.) The threaded barrel part is not "long enough" to put a nut , the chassis is to thick for these small stereo jacks
What can i do?
