Also noticed that the speaker wires are frayed at the plug on the back of the chassis.  I would clip them back to good insulation and resolder them into the socket pins.  From the photo it looks like you have plenty of extra wire on the harness to do this.  Ounce of prevention kind of thing.  Take care, Gary
