No power My problem is that the t.v. is not getting power. The outlet on the wall works fine. I even plugged the power cord into the AVC and it powered that up. Does the t.v. have some sort of reset button on it?

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Check that the control is tightly connected to the module in the blanket. Re-plug the power cord into the wall outlet. On a digital control, you should see flashing symbols and the display on your control will clear.

Hi,

Try this out:

Some printers require time to turn on. These printers may or may not give feedback in the form of blinking light(s). Wait up to a minute for the power light to come on before proceeding with the steps below. Instructions If the printer uses a power adapter (module), follow the instructions below. If the printer uses only a power cord, see the section below entitled “ If the printer uses only a power cord .” If the printer uses a power module Follow the steps below to ensure power is properly supplied to the printer:

1. Check the power module part number against the part number listed in the User’s Guide to ensure the proper power adapter is being used.
2. Disconnect the power cord or adapter from the wall outlet.
3. Disconnect the printer data cable from the printer.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the printer, wait thirty seconds, then reconnect the power cord to the printer.
5. Disconnect the power cord from the power module and reconnect the power cord to the power module. This may not be necessary if the power module has a permanently attached power cord.
6. Reconnect the power cord directly into a working wall outlet. If the power cord was plugged into a surge protector or power strip, plug the power cord directly into a wall outlet instead. NOTE: "The HP Photosmart 8100, 8400, and HP Deskjet 6000 series printer power cords feature a green LED built into the power plug. If the LED is not glowing, the power module may have failed. Proceed to step 7 below.
7. If the printer still will not turn on or the power LED built into the power cord is not glowing, plug the printer into a wall outlet in another room. If the printer or power LED turns on when connected to an electrical outlet in another room, there is a problem with the power in the original room.
8. If there is still no power to the printer, then the power module, cord, or printer may be defective. Try the power module/cord on another HP Deskjet or Photosmart printer, of the same model if possible, to see if the power module is functioning. If the power LED is still not glowing, the power module may be defective. Replace the power module and cord.
9. If the power module/cord works on the other printer, then this printer is defective. Service your printer.
10. If you cannot determine whether the problem is the printer or the power module/cord, or if another printer is not available to test with, replace the power module/cord first. If this does not resolve the issue, service your printer.

If the printer uses only power cord Follow the steps below to ensure power is properly supplied to the printer:

1. Check the power module part number against the part number listed in the User’s Guide to ensure the proper power adapter is being used.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
3. Disconnect the printer data cable from the printer.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the printer, wait thirty seconds, then reconnect the power cord to the printer.
5. Reconnect the power cord directly into a working wall outlet. If the power cord was plugged into a surge protector or power strip, plug the power cord directly into a wall outlet instead.
6. If the printer still will not turn on, plug the printer into a wall outlet in another room. If the printer turn on when connected to an electrical outlet in another room, there is a problem with the power in the original room.
7. If there is still no power to the printer, then the power cord or printer may be defective. Try the power cord on another HP Deskjet or Photosmart printer to see if the power cord is functioning.
8. If the power cord does not work on the other printer, it is defective. Replace the power cord.
9. If the power cord works on the other printer, then this printer is defective. Service your printer.
10. If another printer is not available to test with, carefully inspect the power cord for damage.
11. Inspect the power cord for visible damage. If the power cord is damaged, replace the power cord first. If this does not resolve the issue, or if the power cord looks fine, then service your printer.

Goodluck,
Dont forget to rate me as fixya..

I experienced the same problem. One day the lights on the unit weren't on. The wall outlet that the dishwasher uses had power because the Garbage Disposal that also uses the same outlet had power. Turns out the power supply cord also tied to the water supply hose and had over the months (due to the constant slapping or dancing of the water hose whenever the electrically controlled water valve was opened or closed), had caused the female receptor prong inside the wall outlet to loose continuity with the male prong of the dishwasher power cord. It might have been a defective wall plug all along but the wall outlet worked for months before the problem arose. Anyway, after replacing the wall outlet the dishwasher again has lights and works fine.

Plug the power cord directly into a wall power outlet, and make sure that the standby light is lit (turn it on/off manually to see if anything changes). If there isn't any light, then it's most likely broken.
If the TV works again, being plugged into the power outlet in the wall, then the problem is with the cable box (i bet you figured that out too).

how old is the system
could be your internal plug for ac may have become lose from plugging and unplugging
or you may just need a new ac cord
try moving it around where it plugs into the laptop if you get a brief connection then it probably is the connection inside the laptop they can be replaced

Yes,

You will constantly draw power from the outlet. Though it may not be as much draw as if you were running a device on it. Try picking up the AC adapter one day when not plugged in to the laptop. It still gets hot.

On another note,
When using AC power you should ALWAYS plug it into the back of the device before plugging it into the wall outlet to avoid excessive power surge.
