What if the tv is off and the red stand by light is not on what does that mean

I turned the tv off last night. When I got up this morning the red stand by light is not on and the tv will not turn on. I even changed batteries in the remote. Still no power for the tv. Usually the stand by button is on when the tv is off.

A lot of people are confused about turning the TV 'off'. If there is a light showing when the TV is 'off' it is merely on 'stand-by' and not truly off. Off means being physically turned off by either the switch on the set or the mains. using the remote to turn 'off' the TV will not turn off it will only put the set into stand-by mode. In many cases if the TV is in stand-by mode, and then switched off, when the set is turned back on, it will still be in stand-by mode, and will need to be turned on with the remote. (even if you unplug, in some cases) All TV's are different, so will operate differently of course.

Check the power supply module first for blown fuse, bad capacitors, etc.
