Problem with the input jack in my amp

In the middle of jamming sound stopped coming out of the amp. After much fiddling around, I found the cause to be the input jack. When plugged into the jack in question no sound comes out, nor is there even any sound when plugging in the cable or pulling it out while the amp is on. What is the likely cause of this malfunction, and how do I fix it?

Try cleaning the input port with some contact cleaner. I clean mine by spraying a .38 cal bore brush (Wally World) with Contact Cleaner (TV Tuner Cleaner at Rat Shack), inserting it into my battery powered drill and reaming out the input port. I then spray the port with a can of compressed air to blow out any loose dust (Hold the can upright so as not to spray liquid!).

Give it a try.
