Radio Shack sells about half a dozen different power cords. I am not familiar with the Lenoxx cord specifically, but it is a good possibility that they carry one that will work.

There are about six common cords that fit most items, Radio Shack is a good place to start and most TV repair shops carry power cords

HelloCompare these power cord pictures and get it from any electonic spare part selling shops at your town. It is an easly available part. OK.

You will need to check the swith that change from Tape to CD to other functions. If the switch is good. Then the next thing is to check for tape function. Can you try to fast forward, reverse. If these functions are working properly then the pinch roller ( the little wheel that is pulling the tape need to be replaced). If nothing moves then you need to replace the belt and the wheel and possible the motor at the same time

. When the batteries will not be used for a few weeks or more, remove them to avoid damage that can be caused
by battery leakage or corrosion.

Have you tried cleaning the lens with a Cd cleaner disk?

Since the motor tries to start up, I don't think it's a motor problem. I think that the problem is at the lens; it can't read the cd so it does to stand by mode. I suggest you a cheap solution. Buy a cd/dvd cleaner set, a wet one is better. Follow the instructions on the set. The main idea is to put one drip of the included liquid at the set (usually isopropyl
alchohol) at a specific place (like small brush) on the disk surface and play this disk. That way the "brush" will clean up the laser lens and after that the cd/dvd player will be able to read the disks. BE CAREFULL not to put too much liquid on the "brush". In case you can, use a Q-tip with isopropylic alchool to clean up the cd lens manually.

In case of a problem or clarification, don't hesitate to post me a reply.
If you are satisfied, rate my solution with the "thumbs" or add a testimonial.

Thanks and regards

if it is a plugin (socket at the back of the stero) then you need to call the vendor to order the power cord. if it is a build in (internal connected) then you can get any power cord and repair it by opening the stereo and repair the cord.

Check for broken or stretched rubber drive belts. Age is as bad an enemy as wear. If it has been sitting for a period of months they go bad faster. Even if you keep it indoors out of the heat, the A/C will dry out the oil the belts and they wil lose their elastisity. There are usuallyonly about 3 or 4 belts in the cassette player at most and they cost less than a dollar each. If you can find the belts, buy extras and keep the extras in a zip lock bag. Parts are harder to find as time goes on and most manufacturers will deliverately quit selling normal wear items like belts after a few years to force you to buy a new product.
