The supply has enough power to light up a 40 watt bulb from my ceiling, but nothing from the tube in the set. The tube will light up if I hit it with whatever voltage is going to the picture tube from the high voltage supply, so it does work if you get enough juice to it. My guess is it's gonna be either find a way to get more voltage to the tube, or have a new one made at a neon sign place or something like that? Could there possibly be spares???

Have you checked the pair of 33Meg resistors feeding the light? They may have drifted significantly upward.
