I ran into the same problem with that adapter. It seems to only accept threaded plugs whereas the remote mics accept any style.

My solution was just to buy the earpiece with threaded plug. And unfortunately Moto doesn't make the dual earpieces anymore.

Glad to hear that all is well with the radio And if not Please call me so I can get it repaired free of charge of course. I am ready to assist you in any way with that radio and/or other questions who may have send me an e-mail and I will respond..

As far as the ear jack is concerned Yes! the others are right you can only use the threaded ear jack through the accessories connector. Well good luck and happy to hear that all is well...........
