On these, the "low" jack has normally closed contacts which connect the crossover into circuit when the socket is unused. When the biamp sockets aren't normally used, the closed contacts can develop corrosion which leads to a resistive contact, which produces heat and weakens the spring of the contact , compounding the problem until it no longer works. It will just need a new socket soldered into the PCB, but you will have to get the correct type (they are available aftermarket) - there are many variations of phono sockets.
