Hello... it looks to be a special design (shaped)... the TV only uses 1/2 amp of current... but typically they like to over build these kind of things for abuse and to prevent House fires? Or they already have a warehouse full of them... for other models B /

Hello... no nothing here... just repeats of my words and a best answer... you might have to post it on a img site... does the chord have a end like in the Video's? it looks like a common use VISIO/TV power chord design from the Videos.

Do you have 240VAC at your house outlets? what is your location?... and outlet Voltage? you could have got a USA and NOT EU voltage rated Part/model?

*I ask again WHY do YOU think it is the wrong cord?--- because of the Voltage rating on the cord? B /

Yes the cord that came with it says 7A 125V.
AND on the back of the TV it says 120V.
When I turn TV on it has a dark blue screen and no sound nothing but if I have the wrong power cord that may cause this problem?, not sure..
