Hi Darryn,
Welcome to the 8mm Forum!
If you can find where the socket wires connect to power, expose those points and then measure the voltage, you can learn a lot.
This machine uses a 12V lamp, so even if you don't have a voltmeter you can use an automotive test light that you should be able to get at an auto parts store pretty cheaply. If you grab something like a taillight bulb and solder some wires onto it, you don't even need that.
If it's just the socket, that's an easy fix. If it's the lamp power supply, now it gets more complicated.
