I HAVE A GOODMANS GDVD301R AND WHEN I PLUG IT IN NOTHING HAPPENS, IT LIGHTS UP INSIDE BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE NO POWER TO THE FRONT CONTROL PANEL SO NO OPERATIONS WORK AT ALL
No help from me I'm afraid.
I have exactly the same problem. It's now a fair time since this post, and if you do have an answer to our problem. please could you leave a post for me to pick up here.
It's probably. Buy a new dvd recorder.
