I bought a replacement PS3, it had the same issue. tried both units on a different TV and both worked fine. the original TV works fine with other devices like roku and cable tv, but there was something about the interaction between the PS3 , HDMI cable and the TV. I ended up adding a HDMI switch between the PS3 and the TV and it started working again.

Reset the Video Output Settings
If you changed televisions or changed the type of cable you are using, you may need to reset the video output on the PS3. Perform the following steps to reset the Video Output Settings.
Before changing cables, make sure the PS3 is turned off and the power light is red.
Unplug the power cord of the PS3 and television (or display) from the wall socket.
Make sure the HDMI cable is connected to the [HDMI OUT] port on the back of the PS3 system.
Connect the other end of the HDMI cable into the [HDMI Input] port of the TV or display monitor.
Plug the PS3 and television (or display) back into the wall socket.
While the PS3 system is in standby mode (red light on the front of the system), hold down the On/Off button on the front of the system for at least 5 seconds until you hear a second beep. The Video Output Settings will automatically reset to the standard resolution
