It could just be its time. Supplying B+ is about conducting some decent amount of current, especially in a beast like 37-116.
I would check if any tube decided to short on you, but in all likelihood it is just the choke having decided to quit.
Check it for simple stupid leads breakage, oxidation etc. I had the one in my 16 being open, then upon opening it up and resoldering the lugs it just came back. Not sure how.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
