I recall something about the memory and clock backup capacitor "supercap" in some of those Fishers, might be .47F/5.5V about 3/4" dia 1/4" tall, causing misoperation of the microprocessor reset when it fails, flashing stop light and no display (from the fluorescent display tube, not LCD btw). If you locate that capacitor try desoldering it from the board, then plug in the VCR see what happens. If it does come to life chances are that will be just one problem of several.
