I have never heard of a D-104 with those switches, so it has probably been modified.

Your wiring appears to be correct. The ETS switch turns on/off the roger beep. The Pad switch is a 20dB audio attenuation. The VOX switch is used for VOX (hands free) operation. I have seen the black/chrome models commonly referred to as a "D104 Special" but don't know if that's the official name or not.

When you say it doesn't transmit do you mean it keys the radio but no audio output, or that it doesn't key the radio?
