Is my Sony Trinitron KV-13M10 bricked or savable?

Post by TetsuoXLI »

My TV had stopped working for a while so I was trying to troubleshoot it. Unfortunately I forgot to connect one capacitor (specifically C554) and I turned the TV on. Probably one of my dumbest mistakes. And now pressing the power button (with C554 attached) does absolutely nothing. Is there any way to recover it, or is it irreparably bricked? I'm not that attached to this TV but any help would be appreciated.

Here is the link to the service manual/parts list:

The capacitor I forgot to replace:

C554:-----0.0057MF-----3%-----1.5KV
