Apple tv no longer goes to home so no pic. The pwr light does come on and blinks when home button is depressed. Unplugged several times, changing TV's. An older model, doesn't have a serial #.

If the Apple TV box won’t react to the remote, then you may need to link it again.

See If your Apple TV remote isn’t working - Apple Support (2nd half of the page, Apple Remote (aluminum)).

Please identify your Apple TV model. Identify your Apple TV model - Apple Support. Is it a 4" black box? Is it 0.9" high or 1.4" high? All Apple hardware has a model number somewhere on the outside. (Apple TV boxes would also list the serial number on the bottom.)

If the status light is glowing continuously, then the device started up properly. Then the issue may be in the connection to the screen.

Apple Remote (aluminum) or Apple Remote (white) doesn’t have a Home button. The Siri Remote has a Home button, but that is compatible with the current models only.
