question about a 8-t-241

I'm working on a 8-t-241 and going over voltages at the 5u4 tube. Pin 2 is suppose to have 275 volts and I'm getting 402.
Pins 4 and 6 are right on, Pin 8 is suppose to have 275 volts, I got zero.
According to the diagram, the line to pin 8 goes directly into the transformer....so does this mean that section of transformer is dead???
Update: Located both leads off that transformer tap and I do have voltage. I found 2 bad ecaps (these were new, recently replaced) and replaced them. Now got voltage on pin 8 but its too high, should be 275 I got 390....anybody have any ideas where to check next? I went pretty far into the circut and could not find the cause of the higher voltage.
