Thanks, that's a good tip. Those ribbon cables seem like a disaster waiting to happen. I've now un-seated and re-seated them several times in the process of checking things on both sides of the main

Well, sorry to be that guy that replies to his own emails. Further analysis for the archives: I think I've got it worked out. Initially I was assuming there was something on the logic board that was

Hi Dan, I have recently had the need to pull my IC-7000 apart for a few different faults that have been creeping into the unit over time. My hand was forced when the dreaded "no click/no audio"

Hi all, I'm looking for some help with my IC7000. I apologize for being wordy, it's in my nature and I can't help it. I'll provide a little background, in case it's relevant. If not, just skip to the

Oh, this info is from personal experience and Icom service. -- RickGenesis 1-29

Look in the bottom right corner of the circuit board where the cables enter, be careful of the screws in the top cover. There is a small black plastic computer style jumper that may have worked loose.

Hi Deon, I have a AH-4 that I use with both my 706mk2g and my 7000. You may have already tried these steps. 73’s – Glenn Per the manual (7000): And in the software (Menus on

If you have double checked the setup in the manual and it still doesn't work I would check continuity on all the wires from the plug all the way to the inside of your tuner. Search for the pin out of

Hi all, I am Deon ZS6RFI from South Africa. I seem to have a problem to get my AH$ tuner working on my IC7000. Is there any specific tricks to set up the tuner menus and so on I have tried some of the

I'm working from memory (which is unreliable), but here's something to explore: The IC-7000 may have a feature called "Voice Squelch". It's unrelated to "RF Squelch", which is sensitive to signal

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will check the VSC first, I thought I did eliminate that but I will double check. The radio does not have the head remoted yet, that’s a little later. Need to get

I'm wondering if your voice squelch was activated. Look on the right side, I think, for a button labeled VSC. also look for that in the display. My 7000 is in my truck and I'm inside, so I'm shooting

Check the Voice Squelch Control (VSC) function on manual page 82 (PDF page 91). Steve, W3AHL

Doug, Make sure that the Voice Squelch Control circuit is turned OFF. See if your display says "VSC" on it and if it does turn it off. I think it's page 84 of the manual. I run my RF Gain/Squelch set

Doug, I had a similar issue with mine, and I discovered by accident when preparing to install the radio in my vehicle, that the audio jack on the side of the head unit had bad solder joint on inductor

Hi all, I ran my IC-7000 for field day and rediscovered an old issue (I don’t use it that often but plan to install it in my truck soon). I had the audio keep cutting out on receive on SSB on all

Thanks Steve for that information and link, a great help. 73 de Geoff vk3sq

Steve W3AHL, I’ve been following this thread because I’ve had the same problem with a used IC7000 I bought several years ago. I bought a replacement mic (off of eBay, which was probably stupid)

I tried back mic jack....very weird...works better but only if I turn vox on... I am really confused by the issue and if it is hardware of software related, I didn't have time to torture shoot too

The original PTT switch used in the HM-151 mic'swas not sealed and had a cheap actuator design. Icom started shipping a better sealed switch for repair parts in 2007 I think. It was an ALPS
