The headphone jack opened up on one side so the speaker stopped working. Did not replace defective jack, just shorted together the offending jack pins. Works!
Thanks for showing how to open up this radio!

Excellent guide for removing the front panel. I might not have figured that out without damaging something.
The network connection keeps re-initializing and I was hoping to find maybe a loose wire or something. but alas, I found nothing suspicious and it’s still broke. The IRC6000R isn’t made anymore or serviceable so I guess it’s broke for life. Guess I’ll have to replace it, not sure about Grade Digital anymore.
BTW… My Ifixit screwdriver wouldn’t work with this as I needed a Phillips with a long skinny shaft.

did you find any fuses or motherboard resistors that looked swollen? Mine won’t light up at all
not the plug as I used it to start my other Mondo and the power supply is fine
