Kevin that # is A-9982 - NTE 1231. I have some if you need it.

Your speaker may be bad.

I do! Assuming you eliminated the basics: flex board for connections,
clean the speaker switch on rear,etc.

Kevin, is your audio output the one with the "wings" as a heat
sink on
top, part of the chip? Part# starts with an "A"? I may have one.
Check.

may need the Audio IC, but I don't know. Right now the audio works 95%
of the time and the only way to get it to come back on whenit does fail
is to turn the volume up a little.

I smacked it good everywhere. When I first got the set I whacked 
the 
side really hard and the volume came back. But now my problem is 
the 
set is working most of the time. The other modules are 175-2034,
9-246-01, 9-186-05. I can't find any other numbers after the 9-181. The
audio IC is on the 9-181 module. I would like to repair this 
set 
because it has a very nice picture for an older TV.

Do you have other module numbers? That 9-181 had so many 
variations>>>>01 
thru 18 if I remember.. Some of those sets did not even use the 
audio on 
the 
9-181.. Before you spin your wheels sub another speaker.. Had an old 
RCA 
that the sound went off but turning sound way up it returned... 
Voice 
coil 
would catch on the magnet at regular volume but turning up sound it
released.

Sorry I don't have the model number for this one. The volume 
will 
disappear after several minutes or hours and no amount of 
tapping or 
banging will bring back the sound. If I raise the volume it 
will 
finally come back on again. I inspected the sound circuit for 
cold 
solders and found none. Any other ideas on this oldie but 
goodie?
