Yet another TV problem

[Rob64]

The reason I am putting my problem in this page is because my problem prevents me from playing my Famicom and all other RCA jack consoles I own. I hope this is an okay place.

For some reason, my TV will not turn on. With the remote? No. With the buttons on the TV? No. To further elaborate, check out my diagram below to follow the trail of electricity.

Power source------------------------------------Power Strip 1--------------------------Power Strip 2
                                                   (TV 1, NES, Famicom (with disk drive))       (TV 2, Atari 2600, SFC, SNES, C64)

TV 1 hosts the Famicom, SFC, and SNES. TV 2 hosts the NES, Atari 2600, and the C64.

Everything listed in each power strip work (except for TV 1).

So riddle me this electronic savvy comrades, what is the issue with the TV 1 that the other systems in the same power bar do not share? What would I have to do to fix it? Cost/Worth it?

Any further questions, just ask.

Broken TV. 

Probably something burnt out in the power supply of the TV. It really could be anything. When did it stop working and does it do anything when you try to turn it on (flash a led, make a noise, etc.)? What kind of TV is it, CRT, LED, LCD, DLP, RPTV...? Have you tried plugging it directly into the outlet and bypssing the power strip?

If there's something wrong with the TV, unless you're pretty electronics savvy and comfortable working around high voltage AC, it's best left to the professionals unless you want to see if it can throw you across the room. lol

No noise except for the natural clicking noise of the button itself. CRT TV (pretty sure anyway), and plugging it direct into a wall outlet is not possible due to the room situation.

If you're sure the outlet works (try a known good one in the power strip) and the TV isn't turning on, there's a good chance that it needs repaired or replaced. If it's a CRT tv, you can get one pretty cheaply nowadays, and they're not something you want to take apart if you don't know what you're doing. They hold a voltage charge in the tube even when they're unplugged and operate at 60,000V+ at the flyback transformer, so you don't wanna be poking around without first discharging and grounding the tube.

Sorry it's not a better answer, but without some basic troubleshooting there's really nothing more I can provide.
