i had a similar problem using red,white,yellow cables for a dvd player turned out the cables were faulty.
if its not working either the tv,the ps3 or the cables are faulty.
if the ps3 powers on you (you should see a light on it) then its the cables or tv.
if the tv works with similar devices using similar cables then its the ps3s cable.
if the tv doesnt work with any devices then its the tv.

i have the big screen tv,a ps3 and 5.1 channel surround sound.car still runs smooth and computer still works but its a bit outdated.

the ps3 is probably had hdmi as default just do a reset to it.... power it up but hold on power button until it turns off then power it back again and hold until you hear 2 beeps... you will get recovery menu then just exit the menu.. that will reset the video cable setting...

Or it could be dead because ebay sells a lot of dead consoles without telling people
