Try it on both AC & DC cig lighter cord first. Its been years but IIRC
there were no unusual circuits in it, thats good. After that pull the
back for a good lookin over. Burn spots, blown fuses, loose plugs
etc. Do not worry about the HV ! Even running its probably no more that
12 KV & wont hurt anymore than .001 % of people. It probably bleeds off
in a few seconds anyhows. Unfortunately no 9" Sharps are covered
in Sams. The OEM manual is the only one but BEWARE if you buy one
that you get a real manual !! After the above checks take a few chassis pixs
& with luck we can walk you through it. Odds are its not a tough repair.
