What to do if Lorex DVR is not powering up?
- R
  rodriguezdanielAug 1, 2025
  If your Lorex DVR isn't powering up, first ensure all power cables are correctly and securely connected, including at the back of the unit. Also, if your model has a power switch, make sure it's in the ON (I) position. If the DVR is connected to a power bar or surge protector, try plugging it directly into a wall outlet. Finally, check if the outlet is working by testing it with another device or connecting the power cable to a different outlet. The LED indicators on the front of the unit should be ON when powered.
