How to set trimpots in Deluxe Memory Man with scope?

I bought a broken Deluxe Memory Man hoping to bring it back to life.  It is a recent true bypass model with mn3005's.  I have used an audio probe to trace the signal as far as the input on the first mn3005 (the one on the far right of the pcb), but nothing after that.  Could someone walk me through the procedure of setting the trimpots to get signal to pass through the mn3005's using a scope?  I'm hoping this will do the trick so I don't need to replace the mn3005's.  I've been using this schematic, even though it's not exactly for my iteration:

Here are the pin voltages going to the 3005's.  The first number is the actual pin position going 1-14 on the mn3005 (the number in parentheses is the number assigned to the pin in the mn3005 data sheet I found here :http://www.datasheetarchive.com/datasheet/pdf/10/1071809.html):

mn3005 #1:
1(1): 0V
2(2): 4.54
6(3): 4.4
7(4): 4.37
8(5): 14.86
9(6): 3.9
13(7): 6.96
14(8): 13.8

mn3005 #2:
1(1): 0V
2(2): 4.57
6(3): 4.72
7(4): 4.7
8(5): 14.88
9(6): 3.91
13(7): 6.25
14(8): 13.94

Do these voltages look correct?  Is there any way to tell if these chips are ok from these readings?  Thanks for any insight.
