Trying to find a reason

If you purchased a brand-new television equipment, and it does not turn on, the problem is most likely not in the device itself. The risk of marriage is very low, since respectable companies carry out a thorough inspection of the equipment before sending it to distributors.

Most likely, the reason is as follows:

• Incorrect connection.
• Management error.
• The remote control is defective.

Read the instructions carefully again. For example, the power button can be turned off:

1. If the indicator is steady on without blinking, then there are no problems with the power supply.
2. If the indicator goes out, the cause is most likely a fault in the wiring or the power button is off.

Check the socket and cord (you can check the voltage with a screwdriver with an indicator). If the Samsung TV does not turn on, the red light blinks, contacts may be withdrawn. In some cases, the indicator does not blink due to a lamp failure. Of course, this can not be considered a serious breakdown.

• If there is no reaction from the side of the indicator, it is worth doing the remote control.

We deal with the remote control and TV:

1. Maybe it’s just time to change the batteries in it. Do you have an identical remote? Try turning on the TV with it.
2. If there is no other remote, try using the button on the dashboard.
3. Samsung TV does not turn on, the button on the dashboard does not work? So - everything is somewhat more serious than you thought at first. The clicks in the back of the case indicate the activation of the blocking module. Have to call a specialist.
