Use a hair dryer on the back right side of unit. Humidity sensor may be causing the unit to stay off. The hair dryer may also remove dust causing a false humidity detection

I have had a similar problem for three years with my KV-35S66 (purchased 12/99). With my TV, I get no picture and the red LED flashes, but it doesn't cut out -- it will keep on blinking. Sound comes through fine.
My fix is to put a space heater right in front of the TV for an hour or two, then turn the TV on (or off and then on again).
It appears to be something in the electronics that needs to be warm to work properly (loose connection that expands when heated?). Once the TV is on , the TV stays warm enough to keep the picture (i.e., you can remove the space heater). I just leave the TV on constantly (it is in the basement and doesn't bother me, and my satellite displays a screen saver). TV is otherwise fine and the electric cost is much less than buying a new TV.
You could turn off and then heat up when needed, I suppose, but that takes some planning ahead.

On older Sony, sometimes a power surge causes the set to be in shut down mode. Try unplugging for 5 minutes and then plug in and try. This many times will fix.
