ericambrose32, it would really help if you post an image. I have a feeling I know what you are looking at, but hate to guess.

Thanks for the info. I was still unable to fix it so I took it in to have it look at and they told me that there was a shot on the broad so its dead :( but I do want to say thank you for your advice and I learned a lot form messing with it, and it will soon be on eBay for parts.

ericambrose32,

Sorry to hear that. Best of luck to you on selling it.
