Sometimes the heaters on the loctal tubes can be hard to see. Did you turn the lights off in the room to see if they were lighting?

Get replacements for the other two caps you didn't replace. Also, check your solder joints. Sometimes a solder joint can be loose or be rubbing against another connection causing a short.
