How do I get my tablet to turn on?

It might be the power button is faulty or the device is not fully charged.

Plug in a power cable and ensure the power light is coming on before trying to turn on.

If a little lamp is lit when you plug in the charger (indicating that the device is charging), then try holding the power button down longer until something appears on the screen. If no lamp is lighting when you plug in the charger then there is something else wrong. Check it is the right power supply for the device and that you are plugging into the correct hole of the device (not the earphone connector). It also may be the charger itself is not working.

If the cable has a micro USB connector (most android tablets do), then the connector is likely the problem. With the cable plugged in, there should be a light to indicate charging. It would usually be orange until charged, when it turns green. If you don't see the light atall, the connection is bad. Try wiggling it to see if that helps. If it does, then you will need to make sure the phone is charging somewhere so that it is not subject to being moved at all, which might cause the connection to become loose. The phone will charge faster if it is off.

Sounds like it does not have enough battery power to stay on. If you have not tried to charge it, you should try that first. If you have, it sounds like it is not getting charged or not holding a charge. Could be bad AC power source, bad charger, bad charger connection or bad battery. Take steps to confirm that each of these are good. If all of these are good, sometimes the tablet can become so discharged that it will not allow itself to charge. When they are in that state, sometimes you can trick them into charging again by repeatedly disconnecting and reconnecting the charger as follows: With charger plugged in to AC power source, connect the charger to the tablet. Pay attention to the screen or LED or whatever indicator your tablet has to let you know it is charging. You may see it momentarily indicate charging, or maybe not at all. Then unplug the charger from the tablet then immediately plug it back in and pay attention for the charge indication again. You may have to do this a bunch of times (like 20) until you see the indication that it is charging. When you do get the indication, stop unplugging and re-plugging and let the tablet charge for 24 hours (to a full charge). This trick doesn't always work. Sometimes the battery or charging circuit or an internal connection is bad and no amount of unplugging/re-plugging will fix a hardware problem.

Is the charger ok?(silly me). Unless the battery is functionally dead, it should work. Sometime plugging into another wall outlet may help.

Pamela, let it completely dry so don't turn it on until dry.Do not use dryer etc. Had similar problem on smart phone.

try keep re charging your unit in minutes or an hour until it displays the charging indicators..your unit might empty your battery..
