Is the speaker the original speaker? It could be as simple as needing a replacement speaker(s). Speakers rot over the years. I don't know these stereos very well, so I am unsure if there is a common thing going out on them or not. But you will need to take the stereo out to bench test it and repair it, so I would go ahead and yank it out, test it with another speaker to see if that is it, and if that isn't it, depending on your skills of toubleshooting/soldering/desoldering components, repair it or send it in to a reputable repair shop.

Good Luck
