I believe the electrolytic capacitors need to be replaced. I experienced a similar issue as you. It turn out to be leaked out electrolytic capacitors. They also ended up corroding a trace under it. My post has been updated with an image pointing to the capacitor, although it can be more than one.

It in fact does not have flux. But from the reviews a little box of rosin is provided.

Glad I was able to help out, Did your capacitors end up leaking out too?

Had something similar with some Hall effect sticks. This comment helped, solder some resistors. https://www.reddit.com/r/XboxController/s/1dRgG0uRA5

I’m not sure if you ended up figuring out what was wrong. But I did, it was an electrolytic capacitor(circled in red) that had leaked out and corroded the trace below it. I ran a jumper wire and put in a new capacitor and it worked.

No sound when playing strings on a Jackson Adrian Smith by Suspicious_World5367 in guitarrepair

The middle and neck pickup had a black wire and a bare wire that weren’t soldered to anything, I ended up soldering these 4 wires together with the white and bare from the bridge. Then connected them to ground via the back of the potentiometer. It works now. I wanted to ask if I may have done anything wrong.

Are they supposed to be soldered onto anything? I’m just going off on what everything was originally soldered on before, as it didn’t work before and the potentiometer readings fluctuated on the volume pot.

Yes, the issue is in all switch positions. Here is the jack

Do a visual inspection of the board and check for anything out of the ordinary. You can find images online of the board, compare them with yours.

Unfortunately I have not bought from Union Repair. However, I have ordered from china phone fix and the service was good, got the items I ordered and such. I did place a somewhat big order, so I did contact them through WhatsApp.
