Acrylic bender issue

Hey all, I have my acrylic bender that today started acting up bulb was fading down to the point of going out with machine running. Turn it off was fine again for a little while and same thing. Third time now it doesn’t come on at all. Question is does this sound like the bulb failure or something else. Here is the model.
I also changed out the switch you adjust for the strength I’ve had these go bad before in an older machine but still nothing.
Thanks in advance with any help.

If its a chinese machine i would usually look for the TRIAC... the usually just screw them badly to a machine case without pads or thermal paste... but if u have seen constant fading until is dead... check the capacitor between the triac and the pot. All the parts are cheap, so dont worry too much :)
