I have a Behringer SL2442FX pro mixer desk.

There is no output on the left channel.

Is this a common fault and more important does anyone know how to repair?

Any help will be gratefully accepted

Many thanks

I'm not sure how to repair it, but the exact same thing happened to me
on the same board! I just replaced it (in my workplace - we had the
money for an upgrade).

Is there output on the inserts? Insert connectors going bad is a very
common phenomenon.

Otherwise you need to pull the case, run signal into a channel strip and
go through the master section with a scope or a signal tracer looking to
see where the signal is and where it stops.

IME, if there is no left output at all, 70% chance it is the left fader,
20% chance a dirty left main Insert socket. 10% chance something else.

If the output is intermittent, 70% chance a dirty left main Insert socket,
20% chance left fader, 10% chance something else.



Probably the only thing you can do is clean the Insert sockets. Changing
(and obtaining) a fader will be a nightmare.


Incidentally, on more than one occasion I have repaired a Behringer with
this exact same symptom, and it turned out that one of the main bus tracks
runs right at the far right edge of the PCB from fader to output jack socket
section. When the PCB was installed into the chassis, something sharp
caught on the PCB and partially cut through the track, which eventually
failed some time later.

Within that 10% chance of something else is maybe a 10% chance of a damaged
track on the edge of the PCB. If you take the bottom cover off you may just
spot it.



Good luck!

It's not a fault, they build them that way. If you inadvertently get
one that has output on the left channel, return it to your dealer for
a replacement.

OK, I was just kidding, but I hate when someone asks "is the common?"
or "is this normal?" when it obviously is no.


First, make sure that it's really your mixer that's at fault and that
you don't have a bad cable, you haven't pushed the right buttons or
turned the right knobs. If you're sure it's the mixer at fault, it's
broken. It's really not user serviceable. If it's under warranty, it
will be replaced.

In the UK (specifically Scotland) that's known as "Numpty Error". i.e.
some "Numpty" has grossly misdiagnosed the fault. (Not that I'm accusing
the OP of being clueless, who has given no indication of his technical
abilities whatsoever).



Numptys often bring me radio mics that they say cut in and out. The simple
question "have you tried it in a different channel on your mixer" usually
brings on a puzzled look.

They also bring me perfectly good Speakers saying they are broken, because
at the last gig nothing came out of it.


Never underestimate the distorted reasoning power of a Numpty.

Behringer provide no technical assistance. If it's out of warranty,
you're screwed or have to pay an authorised Behringer repair agent
unless you have a techy friend who'll look at it for you.

You get what you pay for.
