Hello,

One of my units a 996 ending in s/n 832 has no audio coming out of the speaker, headphones plugged in do just fine. I've tried power cycling the unit, plugging in and unplugging headphones and no luck.

I've seen the other threads on this and wondering if there is any other solution other than the 'mod' placing a jumper between the 2 and 3 pins.

The unit I believe is out of warranty so not sure what options that leaves.

Thanks!

Brian

sounds like that common headphone problem (stuck in) ...
try a couple more times to plug and unplug the headphones from the jack

Uniden will fix it for a flat fee (maybe $69 I believe), if you run out of other options

I had this same issue when I first got my 996. Apparently this was a big issue happening to a lot of people when they first started coming out.....A lot of people, including me, had to send them into Uniden to get them fixed...Now, mine, it was still under the warrenty time so I had no fees and they even sent me a free shipping label to send it back in, but I don't know how old yours is so you may end up with a fee if you end up sending it in, which you may have to end up doing... A lot of people had no choice but to send it in.....
