I bought this TV in October 2022 - so almost 5 years ago.

 
My question what is the average life span of these TVs? 
 
Last night it would not turn on - no previous problems.
 
The RED light is not on - and I unplugged the power cord from the wall for a few minutes to hopefully reset it - but no luck at all.
 
Any suggestions for this issue - perhaps a simple blown fuse?
 
Thanks in advance!

If the red "connected to power source" is off, I'd check the circuit breaker (for the power outlet) at the fuse panel

Also, if the power outlet where the TV is plugged into, is on a GFCI controlled circuit, be sure the GFCI is not tripped

You can also try plugging in TV into surge strip that has a reset button. Turn the strip off and on. I've used this method for my TV, my dishwasher, and other things that give error code or just won't turn on. Let me know if it works for you.
