My 25" RCA XL-100 console just DIED!

I'm not happy.

I just turned on my 1981 RCA XL-100 25" console to watch Corner Gas, and it's doing fine for a few minutes, when all of a sudden, it makes a short buzzing sound, and shuts off.

I unplugged it because it's making a burning smell.

What the hell?

Now I gotta get the fucker out of the basement, and it was not an easy task getting it down here. Getting it up will be less enjoyable.
