How to fix Samsung led TV red light blinking

Troubleshooting a TV or Odyssey Ark gaming screen that won't turn on can be tricky. In some situations, it may actually be on but just shows you a black screen. The key is the red standby light, a little red light at the edge of the TV that you aim the remote at. In normal use, the red standby light is on when the TV is off (indicating the TV is on standby), and the red standby light is off when the TV is in use (or doesn't have power).
