If you don't have any switch cleaner you could try applying a *small amount* of WD40 to the earphone socket contacts with a cotton bud. Don't spray it around, and wipe away any excess. WD40 isn't normally recommended as a contact cleaner for radio work but it's better than nothing.

Good luck, Paul
