Try a new lead. Sometimes the ends of the leads wear and they don't fit as snug as they should and don't make good contact any longer. Also the little plastic retainer clip on the male socket wear in time. Its worth a try!

I don't know your machine as such but connnectors such as this are usually soldered onto the motherboard and/or daughterboards. If you are not skilled at soldering it is not a DIY proposition but a GOOD repairer should be able to fix it. BTW all the time it is flopping about the fault wil be getting worse.
