Start by disconnecting the antenna coaxial cable on the back of the video switch. If the light comes on problem is in coax or antenna head.
If the light comes on, reconnect the coaxial cable, go up to antenna head and disconnect the coaxial cable. If light comes on, problem is in the antenna head. Probably the amplifier. New head time!
If the light does not come on after disconnecting coaxial cable at the video switch, it could be an incoming 12 volt DV problem. You will need some type of 12 volt test light or meter to start tracing the power.
After setting the problem is more likely to be water got into the antenna head and shorted out the circuit board then a bad power connector.
