On these sets, there should be 30 Ohms between Neutral and Chassis. Check it.
If you don't have any valves lighting up, it's more likely to be a valve heater or a bit of dirt on a pin. Clean them all and try again.
If the thermistor is O/C then you will not get any life from the valves. You can replace with a 47 Ohm resistor if needed, 10 Watts or thereabouts. Unlikely though.
As far as the switch goes, get your meter on the ohms range and you will find by testing pins that 2 of them conduct when it is on. The other two should as well. Then connect the mains lead to one end and the other ends to the set, Live mains to Live set, Neutral Mains to Neutral Set.

If we've always had that, why is the car boot open? You aren't smuggling in another old TV are you...?
