Nothing to do with the world shut down, resurrecting old thread.

1971 Zenith B/W 19inch - I recapped it as my first project and it was working flawlessly for hours on end. Later on, the on/off/volume switch became loose and the 'stick' which inserted into the switch fell out. I glued it back in but ever since then the set doesn't work for some unknown reason. I have no idea if that is related to my problem or a coincidence. The fact that I turn the switch on and the tubes light up, does this mean the on/off switch is not the problem?

Where I'm at this morning - I opened it back up. Plugging it in and turning it on lights up the tubes but I get no sound or picture. It seems like electricity or voltage isn't even running through the thing. Not sure where to start.

I know some people get annoyed with beginners and some people like helping beginners, but yeah, I need help! I gotta get this thing going again! I'm gonna go bust out my old repair books and search this forum but if anyone is feeling charitable and wants to help please let me know.

Thanks!
