Replacing the Vacuum tube/bulb
Which Extreme do you have - 61/76/88?
Generally speaking, as long as you're comfortable taking apart your keyboard (organizational skills and attention to detail are required), you should be able to access the tube to replace it.
When you say the tube doesn't light up (this is not the blue-ish light that glows around the tube when active), the tube is not actively warming up so you see that there's electricity flowing through it?
