I acquired this transformer around 30 years ago and it has sat in the basement since then. I wanted to try an "experiment" and plugged it in. The variable winding seems to work okay. I'm getting 18v fixed from the fixed terminal and variable voltage from the other set of terminals.
The fixed voltage side, however, does not put out any power. I opened the case and the circuit breaker is functioning properly. Checking continuity on that winding shows that ALL of the terminals seem to be going to ground. I have the service manual, but I'm getting the sneaking suspicion that the transformer winding might be shot.
Any ideas as to what might be going on here? This unit looks like it has been opened previously as one of the case screws is stripped out.
Thanks
