me123,You might try spraying

me123,

You might try spraying some control cleaner into the switch, I think radio shack sells it. Work the switch back and forth a few times to clean it,and maybe you can get it to work. If this does'nt work take it to a repair shop. It may be worth to fix it. I have an old RCA about the same age as yours and really like it. It has 2 speakers for stereo sound and a great picture.

If the only problem is the sound and the picture was fine before that gave out then I would repair it.

hii think that you have a bad

hi
i think that you have a bad tuner board.
it needs to be resoldered, it's a tricky job i do not know if you'll be able to do this. you might have more luck next time if you would post a chassis # which is located on the back.
good luck
