Hello all,
I am having difficulty with my Canon T7i that I bought back in 2020. This camera has been amazing and is in perfect working condition. However, recently, I have been having trouble getting the camera turned on. When I put in a new battery, the camera flashes red, indicating it registered the battery. It will not power on whatsoever, though. I have messed with all the buttons and blown out all the areas I could, and it still will not power on. Are there any tips or tricks anyone knows to help resolve this issue?
Thank you, and I look forward to hearing back from everyone who reads this!

The red lamp is the SD Card light. That means the camera is accessing the card. Is this new battery the OEM battery from Canon or a 3rd Party battery. Have you removed the lens and SD Card to see if it would power up.
