Try power cycling the TV: unplug it from the wall, turn the TV off for about a minute and then turn it back on. Reset any settings to factory defaults.

Try a different outlet to see if that fixes the issue, ensure your cables/cords are properly connected and replace if necessary.

If nothing works, then unfortunately, it sounds like it may be in need of service repair through a licensed service center technician.
