Eric,

I doubt if you got the wrong jack, but it is possible.

Check a few other things first - do you have the wires in the connector housing correct, or are they reversed? Are you plugging the speaker connector to P5 on the RF Board? A few builders have tried plugging it into P5 on the Control Board, and of course, no speaker audio is available there.

Are the crimp pins inserted properly into the housing? They must be inserted until the locking tabs secure the crimp pins - the top of the crimp pins will be below the top of the housing and should stay in place when the housing is mated with P5.

If you are still concerned about the jack wiring, you can check it for continuity with an ohmmeter. The hot side of the speaker connector housing should have continuity with the speaker + terminal, but if you plug a phone plug into the jack, the speaker should not show continuity, but you should have continuity to the tip of the inserted plug.

OK, a possible dumb question. K2 finished and working FB ! Audio from the headphones is fine, but no audio from the internal speaker, or from the external speaker jack on the back.
Receive current is 220mA, so no apparent ground short, as warned against in the 
manual.  All the connections look good.  Has anyone encountered this before?

Could I have gotten an external speaker jack that is supposed to be wired as in 
the manual rev. F, rather than in the errata rev F-12 (which is the exact 
opposite of the original manual)?

Thanks for any help or suggestions.
