I differ to cademan's advice and guidance....

Did you center the balance pot after you turned it?

I had a thought about the front speaker taps on the chassis.
Yes, both speakers should be connected to the molex...and probably are.
But is it possible to try the front speaker taps to see if the other channel might work thru those?

Is it possible to take some spare wire...(lamp cord or speaker wire) and connect to the front taps and then connect to the speaker that is not working and see if you get any sound?

I don't see how this would trouble shoot your problem...but it is something.

I didn't notice a wire there before.

That is a speaker connection.

Look around there and try to find another wire that has come loose. It might be green....

You might want to turn the amp off first.

The speaker that doesn't work is attached to this along with a white and green running to resistors the other speaker that works has one blue wire from switch and a black and blue running from the middle resistors .. and then a white wire
 
Looks like the black speaker wire is hooked up....but you are missing the other wire.

That is a connection to one channel of your speakers.
 
Well, if that front connector is being used to connect one channel of you speakers....and it looks like is was, as one wire is still there.

Then you have to find the other wire that goes there....

Any dangling wire that might have gone there?

I'd check from that speaker selector switch on back to see if one could connect there....

So I need to add a wire .. there isn't anything on the side with the amp loose besides a black radio antenna connection the side by the switch has external unhooked
 
It looks like it is.

That Black wire should go to speaker crossover on one channel.

You posted a picture of the crossover.....it looks like this:

OK, hmmm.

OK, Compare the good speaker wiring to the bad side.

There has got to be a wire that goes from the crossover to that front connector...that is either broken off or something.

You need 2 wires on that front connector to get the speaker working...

By the way, that crossover might be 2 separate crossovers on one board. In other words that crossover might be for both speaker channels....
 
I picked up a very fancy 1959 Console recently...an Ampex...must have cost over a thousand dollars when new. Anyway, once I got the speaker enclosures open....one speaker wasn't hooked up at all. Wires just dangling there! Looked like it had been that way for 50 years....
