two problems.
1) recently tv was freezing its picture and short bursts of picture squares were shown then correct picture was showned
2) the tv no longer stays on what happens is it clicks on then off in the front of the tv next to the power button there is a red blinking light above the light are the words stand by/timer
attempeded correction
unplugged tv and cable box and attemped to reset
no improvment
Called local cable company for help
went through process and cable company responded that it was the tv and not cablebox
Question is there a reset button on tv or tv remote can this an internal problem
This is an internal problem there are no resets.To be shure the remote is not sending a signal that turns the set off temporarily remove the batteries. Read below and decide if you want to tackle the problem yourself if so I’ll help along the way with what info I have. If not contact the nearest repair shop armed with the info below. A dead set (no picture no sound) can indicate any number of problems – Usually the set is in shutdown or protection mode – this means that the internal circuits have detected a problem with a supply voltage missing, drawing too much current, going over voltage or a short condition. The first thing to do is power off the set unplug it for 5min. than replug and try again. This in effect resets the main micro and will sometime unlatch a fault and resume working. There are certain common problems based on the make model – for instance convergence output IC’s(CRT projection TV’s) can cause a dead set symptom in many models. Vertical output IC failure can also cause the same symptom (CRT standard and Projection). The only way to determine the real cause is : By an educated guess based on experience or by directly troubleshooting the set – checking fuses, measuring voltages and checking for shorts. Many of the intermittent problems such as, int.(Intermittent) no sound orpicture, int. picture shrunken or misshaped. These problems are generally due to cold (bad) solder joints (all TV’s and electronics) that break down under slight temperature changes or vibration and are usually verified by physically tapping the suspected area on the circuit board, or by quickly heating or cooling a suspected component or area ( cold spray and hot air gun). The other main culprit is leaky or dried out capacitors or capacitors that change value depending on temperature. These can sometimes be seen as bulged or leaky and have an acrid odour.

MY Sony KV-32HS420 stand by timer blinks 7 times then pauses, and the TV won't come on for several days, and when we finally get it to come on then the timer blinks 5 times. I found out what the 7 blinks means (horizontal deflection stopped--- at least one IC on D board needs to be replaced). What does the 5 blink mean when it's on. I'm afraid to turn it of because it'll be a while before it comes on again. If it even does. I think this is a fairly common problem for this model.
