It won 't turn on

check your power cords, check your outlets, check your surge protector, check the switch on the back of the pc. there may be a black toggle switch with a circle and a line, make sure it's flipped to the line side. if all that is normal, unplug the cord from the computer and open up the case. look at all your power plugs and make sure they're all secure, try and reseat the 1 or 2 main plugs, there should be a rectangular 12 pin plug and maybe a 4 pin plug. unplug them and then plug them back in. put the case back together plug it in, and give it a go. if still nothing then you have to troubleshoot whether the power supply is junk or if your motherboard died. we'll move on to that if it comes up. good luck!

When I plug the tv it won't turn on nor does the

The red light is usually one of the first things that is powered by the power supply of the set. If even this is not working the place to start diagnosis is in the power supply. If you are not a qualified technician taking safety precautions then please refer the repair to a professional TV repair shop.

I have a Fimco 2100 model sprayer that keeps blowing the fuse. Wiring is all ok. Pump doesn't even attempt to turn on. Fuse blows almost 1 second after pump switch is turned on. Pressure gauge never...

The breaker is too small, the cord is too small, the starter motor on that thing draws 18 amps. It will trip any 15 amp breaker and any 20 amp breaker with something else running, any cord will drop the amp below the starter winding min. make sure nothing is running, separate circuit if you can find one, no extension cord, and a 20 amp breaker in the fuse box. if that is not the problem , then something is shorting out when you hit the switch. Check the wiring on the pump and make sure all is secure, no loose wires, no sparks. My compressor won't run on any old plug, has to be 20 amp, has to be without a cord or with a heavy cord, and has to be hot out, if it is cold, forget it!. We have to keep the compressors in a heated room so they will run in the winter. Hope this helps.

The tv wont power on at all

Hello,

Your TV Won't Turn On
If your TV won't turn on, you should check the power cord. Make sure that it is securely in the wall plug. Sometimes the power cord has burned out and needs to be replaced. You may also want to check the batteries in the remote to make sure that they are working properly. If otherwise
Common problem with this TV is the power supply module.
Check the power supply; look for bad caps with leaking/bulging tops, check to see if you have standby +5vdc at the power supply connector, the front red indicator will not be on if you do not have this +5vdc standby voltage due to shorted out power transistor and zener diode, if otherwise, Power supply board just die.It can be dead at anytime.Tries websites Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a refurbish power supply board for the replacement.

I hope this will help to solve the problem.....

Turn power on, approx. 30 sec later it the power

It varies as to what is actually making the TV shut down. Shorting the connectors on the A.C. plug have nothing to do with it turning back on. Its just the fact you are unpugging it for a few moments.

No power wont turn on

The Slight pop will be when the cors plug contacts the plug on the TV, and just a warning it is very dangerous to yourself and detrimental to any electrical appliance if you do this. when plugging in you should make sure everything is switched off before doing so and once all cords are connected you can then turn the power on. As to your problem I think you may have cooked your power supply inside your tv. You may need to have a technician look at it and diagnose for you. Hope this Helps.
