Introduction

If the microphone in your Logitech G733 Wireless Headset is no longer working and you suspect the microphone jack needs to be replaced, you can replace it with this guide. Since getting to the microphone jack requires taking off the circuit board, you can also access many other components with these same steps. For this guide, you will need a Phillips #000 screwdriver, a Torx T4 screwdriver, and soldering equipment. This is a difficult replacement. Soldering experience is advised.
