Squeaking noise inside Phono adapter ?!?!

As mentioned in the title I get this sqeaking noise everytime I plug the adapter of the phono preamp to the socket. Worth to mention the preamp also stopped working... The noise I am describing is inside the adapter.

When I unplug the adapter the noise goes away. It sounds like there is a hamster running on a wheel which desperately needs some grease, to put it in other words.

Never had this issue before and was wondering if that means it is an adapter issue which stopped working. I really dont want to go shopping for a new adapter just to find out that the whole preamp is dead.

Just found out that the right word for describing the sound is squealing not squeaking, ups

How about more detail on the brand, model, etc? Also helpful to know what it is connected to.

Cheers,

Yes apologies, I forgot to mention the equipment... The preamp is an Analogis Easy phono, which is a budget preamp. Well good news. I went to a near shop and they had the same adapter for sale so I bought it and now it works! Funny thing this new stuff for sale today..
