Hello,

The typical cause of power up problems in a failure of the power supply filter capacitors. The board can be repaired by replacing the bad components. Below is a picture of the power supply board with the bad capacitors circled and below that is a link to a it that is available with the correct parts to rebuild that board.

My magnavox hdtv won't turn on no green or red light on the power butten no power at all

Start with the obvious. Is your TV plugged in? If it is on a power strip, does the strip need reset? If all is normal there, then unplug the set and take the back off. Check your fuse to see if it is blown.
