That's about it. The power driver board was replaced and when I turned it on afterwards the sound didn't work. I'm new to the sport I reseated all the cables but that didn't change anything.

Pulled the soundboard and I'd love to know if anyone has thoughts as to what might be happening and what I could do to fix it.

At least one of the capacitors on the board doesn't look all that healthy, but I'm not sure how to go about testing them or whether I should even bother and just replace them instead.

Did you plug in all the connectors for the speakers? Sometimes it the easiest things that are overlooked
