Default Icom 251A All Mode Problem

Picked up a used IC-251A 2M all mode rig a few weeks ago. I left the radio
on today and when I went back to it the evening, the display was blank and
by listening, it appeared that it could not be tuned. Turned rig off and
back on. No joy. Unplugged from wall outlet. Full joy! obviously the rig
is partially powered up as long as it's plugged into the wall. Anybody see
this problem before? If so, what was your fix. Don't really feel like
tearing into full blown troubleshooting. Guess I would start at the power
supply, but most likely trouble is in digital logic area somewhere, or
around CPU. Bummer. Hate when that happens...
