Here is the reply from the other servicer I was assisting:

Bob,

Who ever worked on it before us (maybe the customer opened it up) put a
screw in the access hole on the rear jack panel. Until you told me about
the access hole for this model I thought it belonged there. I removed the
screw & cycled the power & the problem is corrected.

Thanks for your help. Lots like the customer gets hit with an "idiot
charge".
