The work light is probably just lighting up due to HV AC, same reason you can test for HV with a neon bulb.

I had a CTC-31 that would go bezerk, it would lose HV with a pronounced "thump", the neck of the crt would glow purple, ouch! Turned out to be a bad video amp tube. I don't know why, I just know that was it.
