[Kenwood] TM-V71a receiver audio problem

[Ken Brown]

I'd at least open it up and inspect for broken wires, cracked solder 
joints, before asking or paying someone else to try to fix it.

The receivers are receiving signals  but no audio at all, no beeps or any audio output.  I've tried a full reset  several times.  Any ideas anyone?
