Are you sure the problem isn't in the mic itself?  Seems odd that it would follow to the rear PTT jack as well.

I would take the time and clean connectors.  Do them one at a time. Be careful and assure they are seated correctly.  I use contact cleaner applied to a Q-Tip and scrub the male pins. Then  exercise the connector on and off of the mating connector to wipe the contacts.  NEVER spray anything into the radio.
