Just recently picked up a used M1A2 Abrams tank. I know nothing about it when I picked it up but now starting to do a full system check. Everything seems to be working minus the rear LED which I have replaced already and got the smoker working.
But what I am stumped on is the sound. I am not getting any sound.... no engine start sound, not machine gun sound (but I see the LED light). I have opened the transmitter and looks like all wires are connected and the switches do work after measuring with multi-meter. I am suspecting the Multi-function receiver but not sure how to check that. If I was to replace the multi-function receiver, does all 2.4Ghz bind together or do I need a specific one?

Re: M1A2 Sound Problem
If all wiring continuity is all OK, there is a possibility that the multicontroller unit's sound output has failed. However, HengLong's M1A2 engine sound is not a turbine engine sound, it is a copy of Tamiya's Tiger tank sound and the sound quality is not good, so it is quite different from the M1A2 engine sound. If you change the controller anyway, I encourage you to exchange controllers that play third party M1A2 sounds. Because you will certainly be dissatisfied with the sound later.

Any recommendation?
Re: M1A2 Sound Problem
If the other functions work your remote is bound, no need to check the binding.
Do you have the volume turned up?

Re: M1A2 Sound Problem
Yes everything works. I have tried the volume buttons and no sound either besides if there is something on the multifunction unit

Were are you located?
I have one I removed from my HL M1 and you can have it for shipping cost. It was removed several years ago but was working when it was removed.

I am located in Ontario, Canada. Is your hardware version 5.2? That is what my one is..... I heard you cannot use 5.3 with 5.2?
