Then start cleaning connectors.   Use a good contact cleaner, DeOxit,  apply a small amount to a Q-Tip.  Unplug each connector, and do this one at a time, scrub the male pins and then exercise the connector on and off a couple of times to clean the female connector.   NEVER spray anything into the radio.  It will take a dozen or so Q-Tip swabs to do the job.

Bet it comes back to life.

Rodney:

Have they been changed or are they original?   If original, then they
should be replaced.  Also the snapchat battery will likely need
replacing.  There is info on the site about a Bill Of Material at Mouser
for the caps and the battery.
