SANSUI 5500 FM Tuner problem HELP!

Hi All -- I have a Sansui 5500 stereo receiver. The problem is with the FM sound, it is very faint. I have to put my ear right next to the speakers in order to hear it, and that's with the volume at 3/4's of the way up. All the pots and switches have been thoroughly cleaned with Deoxit products, and all other inputs are functioning as they should be.

Has anyone else experienced this issue before? If so, how did you remedy it? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance! -- John
 
FM Muting adjustment could be out, have you tried turning the muting off?
Hello my sansui 5500 is doing the same thing. I'm sure it's the FM mute button causing the problem. When I get up in the morning and turn FM on it works great for about 15 minutes then goes almost silent but still playing FM radio. During the 15 minutes when it is working the mute button works fine but after the FM output goes low the mute button doesn't work anymore. Any help fixing this would be greatly appreciated. Ty
