I can see a couple of scenarios, O/C neutral connection in the mains plug or lead or mains plug/socket connection, if the neutral switch is discarded ie: neutral connected direct to chassis then the chassis will still be live if the live switch does not switch off.
If the set somehow ends up with someone else who is non tech: live switch does not switch off + pilot bulb u/s, set remains on but for how long..long enough and it could overheat..with consequences.
My advice is that when servicing ac/dc live chassis stuff always run the set via a suitably rated mains isolating transformer and connect the chassis to the mains earth with a seperate earth lead.
