Dell E771a died on me

My Dell CRT seems to have died, it powered off by itself after switched it on and now won’t power on.

I am interested in learning how to fix it, I have a cheap soldering iron and have done a couple bits of soldering before.

Where should I start? I am thinking learning about the safety first, any recommendations for videos would be amazing.

I am guessing the issue could be dead caps.

If anyone has any advice or recommendations I would appreciate it. I’m not massively attached to this CRT but it might be good to learn how to repair it, on the other hand if it’s not worth the safety risk, I am open to giving it away to someone more experienced.
