Right side USB jammed
Idk really what has happened. I have tried checking the connector with a flashlight, but can’t really see anything wrong. Nothing is inserting in completely resulting nothing working. I have tried a mouse, a USB drive but all have the same issue on not inserting into the USB port. Left side port does work fine. What should I do?
Ist dies eine gute Frage?
You mean the USB port next to the card reader (and thunderbolt) right? This one is directly on the motherboard and not on the I/O board.
I saw this a few times before, USB port looks fine from the outside and inside, and still not working due "power failures". It's possible that it's just broken... After replacing the mainboard it was fixed (in my experience). Perhaps it has something to do with the USB controller.

Are you able to fully insert the USB plug cleanly?
I would recommend getting this tool USB Mini Voltmeter so you can see if the port is able to power your external devices. As an alternative method you should be able to plug in AC powered USB hub and then use your device off of it.
Often I find people have mixed up their power bricks (or has a bad one) so you over power a device which then sends power to your MacBook burning out the USB port.

@danj I can’t plug in anything completely.
