   WHAT? You did NOT do that when you removed all the screws? I   
   have not been reading the thread carefully ever since you   
   ignored my request for a photograph, but DUUH!

   WHERE are you (as in, forest, garage with NO tools, an audio   
   shop run by Scientologists who believe the e-meter is the only   
   piece of electronic test equipment anyone needs) ????????   
      
   SIGH.   
      
   BTW, I have learned over the last 4 decades that it's ALWAYS the   
   cable (and if it's not, you **still** test any cables FIRST   
   before you do ANYTHING, including attempting to open an audio   
   box [when you should let your friends open your canned food for   
   you] let alone flooding an NG with clueless posts for a week),   
   and /had/ you posted like a person with a clue, I would have   
   told you to try another cable - I know you don't have one, BUY   
   one!
