"PS. I was told "if you plug it, it will play". Not sure, but then the cord was cut."
Mike;
That is like the often used phrase in used car ads, "Running when parked". I see similar stuff in ads, particularly in fleabay listings "Works, powers on but can't get any channels" or (if an older seller) "Everything lights up but doesn't work, must need a tube", why not just plead ignorance rather then confirming it? A newish one I ran into for sets that have been worked on but don't perform well "Just needs an alignment", then why didn't you align it then?
That bushing you had to replace, what did it have there originally, a rubber one?
Regards
Arran
