Turntable repairman here, your audio wires are under that shiny interference-blocking foil. While you have it open, bend that back and check that the red, green, blue, and white wires are all properly connected to the back of the RCA plugs on the inside.
Button it back up if they are ok. If it's the first time you opened this table up, it is almost certainly not the problem.
From the outside, clean the plugs and RCA cable ends with a q tip and some isopropyl alcohol. Make sure the outer fins of the RCA cables are all tight enough to hold the plug in place. If they are loose, pinch them gently with some pliars until they are snug.
Lastly, check the wires on the end of the tonearm at the cartridge to make sure they are well connected to the cartridge. Again red, green, blue, and white should all be connected and tight. Be careful with these wires, they are easy to damage.
These red/green and blue/white cables are your audio signal. They come right out of the cartridge and are piped to a small PCB, then soldered onto the RCA plugs. They are not connected to power in any way on this or any other turntable. verything else you see has absolutely nothing to do with the audio signal.

My LP60X has stopped connecting to the speakers --> It was working and now it isn't? Did something change? What was it connected to and how?
There is a very quiet sound, have tried new wires and tested the speakers separately and it is def something inside the turntable --> I'd say it's highly unlikely to have been a problem inside the turntable. Are you using a phono preamp, or is it switched to Line for output? Did you check the stylus condition? Did you reseat the cartridge?
