AUX only producing sound on one side

So my aux is only playing sound on one side of the vehicle. If I push on the aux cord going into the Jack it will play both sides but only if I have pressure on it. Fm and everything plays fine it’s just aux so i’d imagine it’s a wiring issue. Where should I look and what should I look for for this wiring issue? My aux port could be too short possibly as well. Thanks guys

Most likely, since it works when cord is moved, it is the internal contacts in the jack that are not making contact properly. They are just little bent pieces of thin metal. If they get pushed too far out of position they don't spring back enough to make contact. Sometimes they can just be bent back. Here's a generic jack internal photo with the contact points indicated.
