That makes it sound like there’s a problem with the antenna port … I don’t recall how the internal jack is situated for the antenna line — but you may want to be sure on all of these that when you inserted the TMP cable you didn’t miss the center of the socket and pushed it back instead of getting the tip of the plug fully inserted. I found for a couple of them that the back of the socket is not well supported internally and was bitten by this problem. I ended up using a thin bladed screwdriver to support the center of the socket assembly while inserting the cables.
