Approach this logically. First make sure the fuse in the power cord isn't broken and if it is replace it and maybe the radio will work. second , take and remove the microphone , now with a multimeter insert one probe into the antenna jack and with the other probe you start touching those pins for the mic. make sure you have the meter set for ohms sound . Now if you hear a tone then there is some contact through the board . press on the center of the board to see if you loose contact and if you do ,now comes the fun. Get out your magnifying glasses and look for the crack in the board. once you have found it you should bridge that crack with a resister and recheck for power. repeat the process and as long as there is no change you are good to go.

Need mic wiring diagram for trc-446

you may have to order one from radio shack because the wireing diagram is for that radio and mic only . You cannot use another mic on that radio , only the one that comes with it . If you are patient enough and have another mic with the same controls you could wire it up. it has to be ( I think a 6 pin ) ???

Cb radio trc446 rewiring microphone color coding

if you pulled it completely out you may have a problem . Trial and error is all I can tell you.Get a volt meter and check the mic pins on the radio . Ground one lead and touch each pin for ohms the first one to make noise is the ground. then touch the ground with one lead and touch the next pin and the next . now if there is any left over wire on the plug you can rewire it , then go from there.
