ok here is whats up...i have a ht1000 vhf we prog. it and it was working fine until the other day i turn it on and i get the power up tone and the and the green LED...it was RX'ing just fine, now all i get is just the RED LED when it is RX'ing but no audio can some one help me out here and tell me what could be wrong?
and if it is even worth fixing?

do you have a speaker mic available you can plug into it and see if it works thru there?

i have tried the speaker mic and still no go on sound

Next logical step would be to pop the cover off and make sure the front cover flex is fully seated into the top board connector or if you have another HT1000 a front cover swap.

ok i tried that and still no go if it was the controller would i still hear the power up tone??

You get the power up tone so the audio amp and speaker work, you get a red LED on receive, so it's detecting a signal, sounds like it's just not unmuting on receive, can you run the squelch with the monitor button?

i haved tried all the buttons on the radio and get tone or sound
the only sound it get is when i turn it on ?
anymore suggesyions

I wonder if the radio didn't suffer a controller glitch and hosed the codeplug data, and possibly the squelch setting in the service menu.

I just had a MTS2000 in 900 that had no RX audio and when I placed it in the service mode, the squelch setting was jacked up to max and nothing would open the receiver....it was too tight.

I'd recommend a realignment and check the codeplug for errors.

open a stored codeplug for the radio and write that to the radio and see what it does

Depending on the channel spacing, you may need to access the service menu and see where the bandpass filters are tuned..

They may be out of alignment and the radio is indicating it's receiving, but not the frequency you think it is....which can cause deafness and no audio as well (due to lack of good RSSI sampling levels).

I've had similar problems with my HT1000's. This post might help.

I bought the HT1000 from the OP in this thread a couple of weeks ago. I programmed it properly the day it arrived in the mail and it's worked flawlessly ever since.

Same minor issue you described, and same simple solution in your link above.

I just purchased it for parts, but it turned out to be one of my best Motorola bargains ever!
