The cover doesn't come off. It stays on the chassis. The transformer comes out by removing the large black C clip between the cover and the bottom wafer on the transformer. Remove it and the nuts on top and it should pull out thru the bottom. I haven't taken one of these apart yet but that how it looks. Cover is pressed into the chassis so it's not made to come off.

Is the set working on the bcb and not on sw?
