The Westinghouse SK-26H240S TV may not turn on after not being used for a while due to several possible reasons:

1. Power Supply Issue – Ensure that the TV is properly connected to a working power outlet and that the power cord is securely plugged in.
2. Remote Control or Power Button – Check if the remote control batteries are depleted or if the power button on the TV is functioning.
3. Power Consumption Mode – The TV may have entered a power-saving mode. Try unplugging it for a few minutes and then plugging it back in.
4. Electrical Surge or Fault – If there was a power outage or surge, the internal power supply may have been affected.
5. Internal Component Failure – If none of the above solutions work, the TV may have an internal hardware failure requiring service by qualified personnel.

If the issue persists, professional repair may be needed.
