Cable input broke off back of TV?

The place where you connect the cable broke off the back of my TV. Does anyone know if I can fix it myself? There is a little wire that won't stay connected on the inside.

If you are good with a soilder gun its realy not hard but alkward and time consuming .. also not advised to play in the back of any tv set-lol

The socket is often part of the tuner. The lead wire soldering is possibly dry jointed inside the tuner, or the printed circuit fractured due to strain on the socket. The tuner is an expensive and sensitive component, ask an engineer if they are able to repair the connection otherwise if it requires replacement ask for an estimate.
