The metal connector that is attached to the TV (to connect your arial) has broken off. I still have the piece. I've looked on the web and found the part I need (Tuner RCA 264658) but it is not something the connsumer can install. I had the TV channels coming in (I used the connector with the arial attached to it and set it in place loosely) and then moved the TV back into place and lost the picture. Now when I look into the circle where the coaxial cable that is broken off I see a gold colored spring, but it is bent. I'm wondering if anyone knows if this should be bent, if it's broken or it should be straight. I don't want to play around with making it work b/c I really have no clue what to do. I can use the VCR and hook up video games- just no regular channels (I don't have cable either).

depend on how badly damage it might be.. as a tech i replace these all the time.. if you can solder it might be possible.

If you are comfortable doing some small repair work, you might be able to fix this with stuff you have laying around.
All you need is:
1 - 8" piece of coaxial cable with male connector on one end
1 - set of RCA cables (Red/White/Yellow)
1 - coaxial coupler
2 - small wire nuts
electrical tape
Take
the back housing off of your TV. You may have to unscrew the small nut
holding the threaded connector to the TV. This threaded connector
should connect to the motherboard with a male RCA prong that should be
soldered to the component on the motherboard. You will need to
carefully cut
& remove the old soldering & wiggle the
connector off. This is the hardest part, but it WILL come off with a
little trying.
Now get your coax cable and strip off about 2" of
the black outside housing ONLY. Your solid copper` interior cable
should be protected by a small plastic coating which is covered in
braided wire. You'll need to be careful not to cut the braiding off.
Untangle the braiding down to where your cut stops and try and get it
all on one side of the cable so you can twist it all together and make
a nice wire. Now strip about an inch off of your interior plastic
sheathing to reveal the small solid copper wire on the very inside.
Get
your RCA cable and cut about 6" off of the one yellow side. Follow the
same process above to get a braided sheathing wire and a solid copper
wire. Attach this yellow wire to the coaxial cable by twisting the two
braided wires together and the two solid copper wires together. Use
your wire nuts & electrical tape to secure your connections making
sure none of the wires can touch each other.
Connect the yellow
cable's male prong into the component on the motherboard and attach
your coaxial coupler to the male end of your coaxial cable. If you
saved the small nut from earlier, you can re-attach this new coupler to
the housing on your TV. Screw your housing back on the TV and you
should be good to go.
