Yesterday I finally called for some help for our TV/Wii situation. I placed the called at 9:30 but unfortunately the guy couldn't come "until 11". So after waiting ANOTHER whole hour, these two guys rolled up on a motorcycle. They took apart the TV and said they could fix the sound and input on the back for $40.
Then they checked out the Wii power supply. It turns out that thing has some special screws which are no match for two guys with needle nose pliers and screwdrivers. He checked out the inside of the Wii power supply and said it was broken. So during our Valentine date went to the mall and believe it or not they HAD ONE with the local plug end for $9.
When we got home we plugged it in and WOW the power came on. We turned on the right TV channel and we had sound but still no video. But we could hear the game starting and noise being made and feel the remote shaking. Today we spent some time looking around for the Wii to TV adapter A/V cable thing which we couldn't find.
We are thisclose to some good news. Wii'll keep you posted!!!
BTW, these guys said the TV would take "2 or 3 days" but it turned out to be less than 24 hours and we are rolling again for just $40!
AND these actions photos were taken by Hudson so no one would get mad for us taking pictures.

Awesome pictures Hudson, you did a "GREAT JOB". You'll be able to take more pictures now that you're a pro. Good luck with all the mechanical stuff. Hopefully, you'll be up & running real soon. Love you all !!
Craig, can I get the plug here? I don't think the box has left Bryan yet. If I can maybe we can get it in the shipment? Let me know ASAP.
