Then it would likely end with replaced displays, mpu and who knows what else. Perhaps you are unaware of what happens with electrical systems when you shunt fuses. At any rate, I tried to find what I needed to begin to trouble shoot it and I don't remember you volunteering any parts.

I have put more work into machines worth less.
Some parts are harder to find than others. A transformer? Not all that hard if you are willing to wait. I have waited 2+ years for some parts in the past (Whodunnit slot reels/motors). The key part is waiting and reposting on RGP every month or so.

Or simply don't wait and make a vp out of a good machine.
