Hitachi 42' Plasma Will Not Power Up After Being Transported

I transported it in my car, laid on its back for 12 hours. No cracks in the glass, all looks well, and is now hung on the wall for 12 hours.  But it won't power up.  I usually have a red stand by light on the front but nothing at all.  It is as if it is not plugged in, but it is and I have checked the power.
