V80 Power Cord

[jholmgren]

My newly acquired V80 needs a power cord - 'critters' got to the original plus it has some nasty looking cracks. 

I know that FunTronics sells a replacement, but is there any 'secret sauce' to it?   It looks pretty standard.  I'm thinking for a one-off item like this I should be able to pick up a standard appliance replacement cord at my local Home Despot and save on the shipping.

Also - anything special I need to watch for when replacing the power cord on this?  I haven't taken a real close look at the connections yet.

Thanks,
Jim

I got my cord for a Vendo 56 at Lowes... on the 56 there was a little box the end was in
I had to drill the box open by the way it was sealed then I just changed out the cords.. Moondawg talked me through it...
He can talk all the lingo and get you through it.. I'm sure someone here may even have a image of it step by step.

If it's just the main power cord, I replace them with an appliance cord from Home Depot.

Thanks all - I got the main power cord successfully swapped out.  On to the next issue...
