Thanks Mike, I will do that check. Just a bit of progress today but ready to put the shell back on and reinstall the power transformer now. I simply took off the old insulation by squeezing it a little with needle nose pliers. It just crumbled away. Then a colored heat shrink sleeve went over the uninsulated wire. I spliced in a longer piece of wire that will then get soldered onto the appropriate spot on the chassis. A quick ohm check after all the work and it still seems to be OK.
