I have had an RCA and a Magnavox do this. Could be a cheap fix at a repair shop or it could be cost prohibitive to get it fixed. The reason it won't come on is because a fuse has blown on the power supply board. What made the fuse blow on the other hand is your root problem.
I considered fixing mine myself, but you take your life into your own hands working with crt monitors. They carry enough charge even years after they have been unplugged to stop your heart. No danger if you know what you are doing, but touch the wrong places at the same time and ZAP.
