Buzzing noises on the line could indicate incorrect wiring or wires touching metal. In this case you may need to find the correct wiring diagram for that particular phone and verify the right colored wires are connected in the right spots. Also, check to see if any wires are touching metal. This could cause them to ground and the phone to make this noise.
No noise could indicate that a wire is not connected or a wire has shorted. Check to ensure the wires aren’t touching each other and that they are properly covered with insulation. If no noise or low volume during a call check to ensure that the volume is turned on. Also make sure the mute button is not enabled. If this does not resolve the problem this could be a bad speaker.
