So is there a chance to fix it? Thanks
Probably not economically, at least in the US.
The schematic shows a 450 kHz ceramic filter, so my hypothesis might be right. If it was made by Murata, it will have some indication of the IF frequency, and if it says 455, then this is probably the reason. Murata filters are cheap (under US$10 at Mouser), but I don't know if they are compatible with yours. Or, you could cannibalize one from another 7600D if you can find a bad one.
Even if you found the right part, in the US the labor charges would be more than the radio is worth. Maybe you could find a sympathetic hobbyist...
