Try following the steps below.
Step 1
Press the power button once. If the TV does not turn on, observe the LED indicator, usually located on the TV's lower front panel. If the LED indicator turned off after you pressed the power button once, it is in standby mode. Press the power button once again to exit standby and turn on the TV.

Step 2
Observe the Standby light if the remote control will not work. If the Standby light stays on, the television is in Standby mode. Press the power button on the television, then try to use the remote.

Step 3
Turn the Energy Saving Switch off, then press the power button. The Energy Saving Switch is located on the rear or side panel on most Sony model TVs. Refer to your TV user manual for the exact location of the switch.

Do find any bad caps, short circuits/parts on the power supply module? Do you get ON (PS_ON) signal at the power supply module. Try disconnecting connector from the power supply module that feeds the backlight inverter board to see if the power supply will put out the 12 and the 24vdc.

If you are going to DIY and have proper tools, electronics knowledge, and know safety precaution then please read on:

Please post back what you find.

The remote control will not operate the TV when the TV is in the OFF mode (No LED lit on front bezel). To change the mode from OFF to STANDBY or ON, press the POWER button on the side of the TV. Once the POWER button is pressed, the LED will change to either red to indicate STANDBY or green to indicate ON, whichever mode the TV was in prior to being turned off with the TV POWER button.

By pressing the POWER button on the side of the TV, the mode will toggle from OFF to either STANDBY or ON. If the POWER button is pressed and then the LED on the bezel is red, the TV is in STANDBY mode and will need to be turned on using the remote control. If the POWER button is pressed and then the LED on the bezel is green, the TV is ON.

I recommend trying the auto-code search to find one that works for your TV. This will search through every TV code it knows, and if none work, unfortunately it cannot be taught new codes.

To have the remote try each TV code it knows one at a time, follow these steps:

1. Turn on your TV.
2. Press and hold the CODE SEARCH button for at least 3 seconds until the red LED lights up and stays lit.
3. Press the TV button on the remote so that the LED blinks once and then remains solid red.
4. Press the ON/OFF button slowly and repeatedly until the TV turns off. The LED will blink once each time you press the ON/OFF button.
   
5. Once the TV turns off, press the ENTER button to store the code and the LED will turn off.
   

I hope that helps.

just one idea.. some set you may program to stay on in case you use cable box and when you turn on the box tv turn on same time but may be defective tv there is relay,transistor and the micro that may be bad so check your settings again ... Good luck

Aren't you talking about the standby led? cause that is perfectly normal... when it's on it means you can turn the TV on by remote, usualy it goes away when you turn the TV off manualy by pressing the OFF button on the set, but is this really your problem?
