Hi all,
I took a break to collect information and regroup. I am going tp reinstall all of the original components I removed, it will be good practice for actual replacement. I found a transformer that could potentially have come from an RCA chassis.
I'll post a link to the images, I am trying to identify primary and secondary windings to compare to my KCS116C chassis needs.
I am struggling to identify and measure ohms/volt outputs for needed voltages.
Perhaps the group can help.
Thanks!

The *first* thing I do on an unknown transformer is to check every wire to see what other wires (there is at least one) have continuity.
I then put all wires with resistive relatives into groups. Within each group, the wires that read highest resistance to each other are the outside connections, and the third wire will be the tap.
Note, if you find one wire that has no resistance friends, you have a bad transformer...
