if it turns out that the problem is that transformer, where can i find one.
Nope, I believe it's T2, at least in the Sams. Here's what mine looked like with a bad T2. Look familiar?

If you have the chassis sitting on its side with the underneath facing you, and the picture tube facing left, the transformer will be just below the chassis cutout for the picture tube, on the left side of center down low.
