You might have dried up capacitors. They might likely be the old electrolytic type that need moisture to conduct electrical signals properly. If you're handy with a soldering iron and know how to disassemble and reassemble appliances (in other words if you are not all thumbs) then buy some new caps for pennies and replace them. You could look for faulty caps first, bulged tops and discoloration from oozing electrolyte, or just replace them all and see if that works for you. You'll probably spend $20 bucks on parts.You might have dried up capacitors. They might likely be the old electrolytic type that need moisture to conduct electrical signals properly.
