Ok this project has started back again. I might need some specifics. For instance when I tried to put the transformer back I just noticed that the bracket and transformer are too wide for the holes in the chassis. It seems like my entire transformer and bracket don't fit and that why one side was glued? I started looking at pictures of other gu 12 and it seems like they all have different transformers then how mine looks? Could this be a hack job I'm inheriting?! Please look at the above pics of my transformer those familiar with these amps and let me know. This is a black lettering Magnavox era of these amps? Because my writing color on my transformers matches up with the schematic glued to my chassis? Am I tripping?
Also if I have to splice the wire once I get the transformer attached my wire on my transformer says that it's 22 gage and rated 500 volts. I know I should match the gage. Does it matter how much voltage the wire can handle? The schematic says 370v? Am I risking problems by putting in 22 gage write rated at 300v? Radioshack doesn't carry anything else
