I picked up a Hurricane this weekend. The guy told me that the sound was intermittent. I have had it running for a day or so and am yet to hear any sound lol. I got it so cheap that I wasn't concerned with the sound at the time of purchase. I am looking for any tips that people have had with a similar no sound issue.

Board looks clean. I reflowed all of the pins for the connectors. Someone on another thread mentioned the crystal so I am going to get one of those and also recap the board. I thought I read somewhere that an IC can cause the sound to go. Anyone know which one for sure to check?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Quoted from rancegt:

Have you run through the sound tests? Try it if you haven't. Do your speakers make any kind of a pop or other sound when you power the game on?

It will make a ding everyone in a while. Kind of weird. I have been through the sound test but nothing happens

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

Check the speaker at the bottom of the cab. If a wire is loose there you'll have no sound to any of the speakers. Could be as simple as that.

I have not but I am getting ready to go out and check it right now.

I just checked the cabinet speaker. It was hooked up with a good connection. I noticed a little bit of hum from the panel speakers. If I unhook the ribbon cable from the sound board I get a ding sound like the one a game make after it runs its start up test.

Hurricane has sound once again.

I pulled the mpu to just go over it and make sure everything looked fine. It looked like someone had sneezed solder all over the back of it. There was a blob on the back of the ribbon cable to the sound board that touch about 5 pins together. Cleaned the board up and all is well. Thanks for any help
