I picked up a pair of Samson Servo 120s and neither have working LED VU meters. There are 4 meters total and each one uses a BA6124 SIP chip driving as separate PCB with LEDs. Here is the data sheet -

Does anyone have experience with this chip? Are they failure prone? I suspect a similar problem in each amp since all meters are dead. I tried re-seating the cables to the LED PCBs and some other mechanical things already.
Any thoughts?

Before drawing conclusions, check that the VU circuits actually have power, the common denominator. I've come across a couple of amplifiers where users have even disconnected LED meters which have proven irritating in an unlit room.
I have these as well and the meter sensitivity is very low (probably because it is related to full output for the amps) - have you tried turning up the volume a bit (without a speaker) to check that the LEDs don't light up?
