Re: SL1 will not turn on, no blinking light

+1 to Lepewhi's suggestions.  See if that battery door micro-switch has been tweaked.  Stuff a bit of something in there if you have to.

Failing those fix attempts, you could try the "rice bag" desiccant trick if the camera might have been affected by humidity or moisture (plastic bag, rice, sun).

Best of luck to you!
