Connect the power cable again
Maybe the cable is not linked correctly to the device, or to the wall outlet, so make sure you check both. So Turn off the switch, plug out and wait for 30 seconds. Then, plug it in again. Power on the device and see if it’s working.

Maybe there’s a problem with the power button. In order to do this, you need to have some experience behind it. We advise you not to try to do experiments.
