Check the plug in to make sure that you have power and the breaker didn't trip for some reason. If that is not the problem then there is a fuse that sometimes blows. You have to take the back of the tv off and the fuse is located right down where the power cord comes in. There is a small 15 amp clear glass fuse. Sometimes this fuse blows and will not allow power to get to the control board. Make sure that you unplug the tv before taking the back off. Also the capacitors can store electricity for up to an hour. So unplug the tv and let is sit for at least an hour before removing the back.
Hi,
Kindly mention the make and model of the TV?
Do you see the any LED being lit up or is it completely dead?
Thanks!!
Thanks for your response!!
Kindly provide few more details :-
-How old is the unit?
- Do you have this problem on all inputs? (dvd, cable, satellite, etc )
Can you get the tv in a very quiet room, unplug the tv for 1 min then
put your ear near the back of the tv and plug it in, do you hear a
quiet "tweak" sound?
Next have someone push the power button while your ear is near the back of the set, do you hear anything again this time?
Let me know,so that we could proceed.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
Thanks for your response!!
OK, we possibly have a bad AC fuse then, there are several things
that can cause the ac fuse to blow on this model. At this point i need
to know where to go with my answer.
Do you have electronic repair experience, test equipment and soldering capabilities?
What
kind of information are you looking for? A good idea of whats wrong
and what it will cost or would you like to fix this yourself?
Let me know,so that we could proceed.
Hope i helped you.

Another thing I would like you to try is to play with all the buttons
on the front of the set, they are notorious for going bad and causing
the set to be dead, just push them all over and over again in different
order and mess with them for a min or two and see if it comes on, if so I
can tell you exactly what is wrong with it.
If that
doesn't work we are back to having a list of about 5 things that could
be wrong with the set, bad convergence circuit, fluid leak, bad micro
circuit, etc.
This set is not an easy one to work on.Moreover, it does involve a risk as it requires you to work on high voltage components. We need to locate a service manual. You need to have electronics repair experience to resolve this. Unfortunately, there is no way to fix the TV without opening the TV.
If interested revert, i would provide you with a link to purchase a service manual for the same. Kindly arrange multimeter and soldering iron for the time being.
Let me know,so that we could proceed.
Hope i helped you.

completely dead...no sound no picture...no nothing....RCA...P56820BL
Im not sure how old it is. I purchased it yesterday from a friend. It was working yesterday before they tried to move it into the room. I have done what you asked. I hear nothing.
NO I dont...but If you tell me what to do...I know I can do it. I would prefer to fix it myself because I can not afford to pay someone to come and fix it.
How much would the parts be ad where can I get them?
how much would it cost for someone to come out and look at the television....that didnt work....I work on computer....so working on this would be a piece of cake...If you can walk me through the steps I would be very happy. If the AC fuse is bad ...how would I know? I have already opened the back of the televison. I have the service information sheet.
I have the AC fuse in my hand...what should it look like?
