    While moving gear about on my radio rack, I apparently jarred my TS430S and everything seems to have died. No display (but some of the lights work) and no sound. I suspect I broke either a power or ground lead somewhere so I need to know, if anyone
    does know, where to go to find my problem. I know, I shold be able to do this without help, but I haven't been insied this transceiver before and I need a little guidance.

    Before you go digging for broken wires and/or board traces, my suggestion would be to pop open both covers, and try reseating all the cable connectors, by removing them one by one, spraying them with deoxit, and reseating them, before powering up the radio once you've completed.

    If that doesn't work, you're going to have to start looking at the schematic and
    doing some digging.

    How do you know you need to get inside the radio?
