Cmshinerboch Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 My icon SB1 won’t accept the optical line anymore. Nothing appears to be damaged, but the line won’t stay put. I’ve tried different lines and they are very loose in the optical input on the soundbar. What are my options here? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybob Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Welcome to the forum and from what you said, "anymore" going to take it that it did. Look at what may have changed since disconnecting. Use a magnifying glass to look into the the recepticle for a clue. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Does it have a regular or mini optical receptor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khornukopia Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Did the optical cable input originally have a dust cover flap, similar to the gray hatch in my picture, the part that is pushed up during cable insertion? If that flap broke off, then the cable will be loose and not stay in place. If that were to happen to the device in my picture, I would slightly loosen the nearby screw, wrap a twist tie from a bread bag around the screw and then around the optical cable to hold it in place until I could find a replacement optical port. Then I would install the new port. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
