Default S80 radio - no AM

Any thoughts as to why my '57 S80 would have a brilliant FM reception but no AM??

It's a common fault don't think there are hardly any radios of that type that work on am something to do with a step circuit? I couldn't find an economical cure please let us know if you can.

I was polishing the interior glass on mine the other day and knocked off the connector to the foil on the window. Try looking there.
