  If your Lorex Security System isn't powering up, start by checking the power connections. Ensure the cable from the power adapter is securely plugged into both the system and the power outlet. If the connections are good, confirm the system is powered on by checking the LED indicators. If connected to a power bar or surge protector, try plugging directly into the wall. Also, test the outlet with another device or try a different outlet.
