Ok, bought a working Defender, had sound, everything worked great. Played several games one day, turned it on the next and the controls were a little flaky, turned it off, reseated the ribbon cable and the controls worked again...ok, so I turned up the sound, not full blast by any means, but it was loud. Played several games over several days, then one day I turned it on and it didn't "growl"...no sound whatsoever and haven't had any sound since. Turning the volume pot up, you can hear a hum in the speaker get louder or quieter as you turn it down, so it looks like the sound amp is working. Figured since I was ordering a new control ribbon cable from Bob Roberts, why not order a new volume pot and a sound card cap kit since it seems that other KLOV'ers with the same issue as mine, resolved the sound problems by installing a cap kit. Ok, so I installed the new pot, same issue, installed the cap kit (except for the three small caps, the ones on my sound card didn't seem to be the same value) and still no sound.
Any ideas on what I need to do next? Hoping to resolve this soon...I miss my Defender sounds! Reminds me of the local pizza place when I was a kid...
