Brsk - What do I do if my BetterTV won't turn on?

Did your BetterTV turned off on it's own?

Your BetterTV automatically goes into deep sleep after being inactive for a while. The LED light turns off to save energy.

If your BetterTV isn't coming on or showing any LED lights, it's probably in deep sleep mode or there's a power issue.

**How to wake it up from deep sleep: **Press the power button on either your remote or the side of your device. You should see a blue light appear.

If no lights appear, try these steps:

  1. Make sure you're using the power cable that came with your BetterTV—other cables might not work properly.
  2. Check the power cable is plugged into a working outlet.
  3. Try plugging the power cable into a different outlet.
  4. Switch the power off at the wall, wait 10 seconds, then switch it back on.
  5. Unplug the power cable from the back of your BetterTV, wait 3 seconds, then plug it back in.
