Hello,
I am looking for the service manual for the Icom ic251E and the wire diagram for the mutek frontend board.
I had a problem with the mutek board and took it out without making pictures or schematic of the wires, and now i have nothing on the recieving end.
Can anyone help me with this problem.

I didn't succeed in finding the Mutek circuit diagram for you. I found these phrases at more than one site, probably what you didn't do?:
Quote from: undefined(1) FRONT PANEL
- Remove four retaining screws and top cover.
- Remove four retaining screws and bottom cover, disconnecting the speaker.
- If you have a Mutek front end board fitted remove it now. MAKE NOTE OF THE CONNECTIONS TO IT! ***WRITE IT DOWN***
- Remove the four front panel frame screws
- disconnect the wiriing harness and remove the front panel. NOTE WHERE ALL THE PLUGS GO! ***WRITE IT DOWN***
- Locate the orange wire linking the mode switch and the board behind the power control potentiometer.
- Desolder it from it's present position on the mode switch and move it to the common side of the switch. That completes the front panel mod.
This example from: http://www.pa7es.nl/All_ICOM_mods.pdf
Put this exact search phrase (with quotation marks) into Google:
"If you have a Mutek front end board fitted remove it now"
Check the hits, even the picture hits, maybe something there will yield what you need. Good luck!
