Clarification Request
I don't see model, year or warranty status.

In warranty you just call it in.

Out of warranty you try the usual. Unplug the power then one end of all HDMI cables then wait about 10 minutes for a full reset. Then apply power and see if it comes up.

If this is on some Internet connection and fails, turn off the WiFi router then repeat.
