When I put the plug into the PSU for my sony tower pc the green indicator light just keeps flashing. Now when I unplug the 24 pin connector from the mother board the light on the PSU is steady green. What could the problem be since the computer will not turn on at all?

The PSU has Problem . It is not supplying enough voltage to boot the PC, capacitors inside the PSU are weak or damaged. Its dangerus to open the PSU coz, Capacitors have high voltage currents. If you have the Knowledge of electronics, then open the PSU and detect the Weak or Leeky Capacitors and replace them with new one( this method is for experiment and thrill) . But the replacement new PSU is better , perfect and cheaper then repairing the psu from outside. best of luck
