More than likely you have a failure in what is called the RFH or Radio Frequency Hub.

The way to confirm this is run through the testing that I am attaching below. Here are a couple guides that will help with doing this testing:

Please run through these test and let us know what questions you have, and we can go from there.

Thanks
