Well, that will explain why it's not working then! You must have ALL these items connected when you measure voltages. Without the magic eye the heater chain is broken.

The only odd thing is you were reporting the UY41 was glowing even with the magic eye disconnected. If this was the case you definitely have a heater cathode short.
