Does that transformer have an internal thermal fuse? I have dug out
and replaced a lot of them over the last 20 years on all kinds of
electronics.


I've never tried that - I assume then, that you don't need to remove
windings? Or is it not quite so easy?


As Michael says, sometimes you can get the old fuse out, particularly if
it's just slipped into a card 'pouch' in the windings, but more often than
not these days, they seem to be buried deep in the tranny, where you would
likely do damage to the winding's insulation integrity, trying to get it out
