ie the yellow PVC? wrapper often seen around the windings or frame, more so than mains f transformers.
Is it always yellow? If light brown with other indications that there was an excessive load and general overheating, would a light brown colouring mean it was overcooked and shorted turns a possibility? An original one for this model not seen, so no idea if it should be light brown or the ubiquitous yellow.
I will try cooking some of the yellow tape stripped from a scrapper.
