Hey, I broke off the end of one of my patchwires in the input on my Nyle filter. How can I get the broken piece of wire out of the input jack?

The only thing that comes to my mind is very thin tweezers, like on the picture. But it depends where it broke exactly, if there is a small end that can be grabbed. Otherwise, please send the module to me, I can swap the socket then. Attachments:

Ok, the break is completely flush with the input jack. I'm going to have to send it in. I'll contact you from your website. Thanks so much.

If you have a fine-tipped knife like an xacto knife, you might try to get to the end of the broken-off bit from an angle and carefully lever it out, but it might be very difficult.
You could also try a very tiny drop of superglue on the end of a toothpick, but you'd have to be REALLY precise.

If you have a hot glue gun, try to put some hot glue over the socket with the broken pin and let it solidify, then pull it off (straight up), this might take the broken pin out.
Just remember to cover the other sockets with some masking tape first.
