the vendoramusements forum was a good trove of information but about a year ago it lost the user database or something and you couldn't sign in. (well at least I couldn't sign in)

 :dunno if you gotta go, ya gotta go.

It's dead and gone. I know, it was my website.

Updating this thread.

The Vendors Amusements website and forum has shut down. All my previous links to that site are now dead. :(

No word on if it will ever come back.

It's dead and buried. I buried it. Company went bankrupt.

Hoping someone can help here...

I have a WG 27" D9200 that has just quit.  Nothing happens at all when it's plugged in.  Main fuse is good, so some component must have died.  Is there a service manual for these things lurking out there on the 'net?  I can learn chassis repair, but any tips I can pick up prior to that would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
