Sony Wega TV Problem

I have a 32" Sony Wega TV and have noticed a problem.

When I turn on the TV the red light will flash for longer than a few seconds. I will have sound, but no picture. If I turn off the TV and turn it back on, sometimes the picture turns on, other times it takes a while.

Has anybody else run into this problem with their Sony Wega before? If so, how much was it to fix?

Thanks!

Doing some additional research it sounds like this might be a problem with the high voltage flyback autotransformer and horizontal amplifier. Has anybody else run into this problem?
