Why is my Lorex DVR not turning on?
- L
  Lauren CohenAug 12, 2025
  If your Lorex DVR system isn't powering up, start by checking that all power cables are securely connected, including at the back of the unit. Ensure the power switch is in the ON (I) position. If connected to a power bar or surge protector, try plugging directly into a wall outlet. Verify the outlet is working by testing it with another device or trying a different outlet. The LED indicators on the front of the DVR should be lit when it's powered on.

  If there's no picture on your monitor or TV after connecting it to the Lorex DVR system, first, power off both the monitor/TV and the DVR. Power the monitor/TV back on first, then power on the DVR. Make sure that you have selected the correct input channel on your monitor/TV to which the DVR is connected. Also, ensure the video cable is securely connected to both the DVR and the monitor/TV.

  If your Lorex DVR system isn't detecting the mouse, make sure the mouse cable is firmly connected to one of the USB ports. If that doesn't work, power off the system by disconnecting the power cable. Then, firmly connect the USB mouse to a USB port and reconnect the power cable to the DC 12V port on the rear panel to reset the system.
