No pic, hear static on GE model YM9473PC

Supposedly worked when purchased, but perhaps damaged in transport? Tried a digital converter box. Still nothing on screen. No light, lines, or static feel. I see a little glow in the back.
We just want to connect to a vintage Colecovision console and VCR. Don't need broadcast.
Any ideas why nothing is happening to the screen?

Are you sure you have that model number right?
The only thing I found under similar numbers were clothes washers.
How about some pictures?
There are so many things that could cause this that you will need to give more information.
Seems it may be a relatively recent solid state TV.

Its a YM chassis.
Typical mid 70's modular set. Delta jug, Zenith type power supply
with transformer & oil cap. Easy to deal with, no killer circuit
designs.

Try the circuit breaker first. If it popped you lose HV but still get
audio.

If its beyond that what is your experience level & what do you have for test equipment ???
Also a pix of the chassis helps others to relate to the set.
