Help! 1989 GE VG-7910 worked, randomly no picture!
Hello! I purchased a used 1989 GE VCR VG-7910 VHS back in March off ebay from a seller with excellent reviews and had tested. I have used it fairly often with zero issues, until about a week ago the power went out at my house and I heard a pop noise. The house I am in has very very old electrical wiring, but I do use surge protection extension cores in all my outlets with my electronics. Now it will not play any Video it is just the blue screen or it will say no signal found. The audio still plays totally fine. I have taken it apart and cleaned the video head, I used a cleaning tape as well. I also have tried various rca cables, ones I know work and tested them with some of my older gaming consoles. I also trying different channels. I have done everything I know to do. The inside of the vcr was very clean looking when I did open it up and every seems fine. Nothing is broken as far as I can tell. Any and all advice is welcome!
