"...placing the top cover back onto the chassis I found, all of a sudden,
that there were no audio from the internal speaker. And there were no sound
from the external speaker jack either. Now I have only audio from the
headphone jack. All worked well before. What can possibly have gone wrong?
--------------------------------------------
Personally, I find that such failures are ALWAYS something I touched. As
much as I really, really want to believe that something unrelated failed by
coincidence, I don't think I've ever found that to be the case, Hi!
In this situation, the problem should be in the cable from the speaker to
the jack on the main PC board. Forgive my asking the obvious but:
1) Did you reconnect the plug to the main pc board when you install the top?
2) Is the connector oriented correctly. It is possible to get it backwards
if the tab on the connector has been bent. Inserted backwards, it shorts out
the audio line to the speaker.
3) Did one of the speaker wires break, either at the connector or elsewhere
on the top cover where it moved as you handled it?
