Philips 47pfl3603d/27 power supply

Hey guys-
I have this set on the bench, I powered it up and the p/s caught on fire! It turns out the transformer on the board is shorted. Is there a source for these? The number I can read off of it reads as follows:

2K8 47 FHD
2130KP023OA-F
SC-080322C

Appreciate any and all feedback!

Transformers will read short due to how they are constructed. Pictures of the damage?

Hope this works, main board is still ok, picture did come on for a few seconds.

To me, looks like something NEAR the transformer failed, rather than the transformer itself.

Nothing near the transformer on the board. Fire was coming out from the corner of the tranformer. Is there any replacements for these available? I have no leads on finding these.

It looks like a possibility that the wires connection to the pin may be bad. If so it may be arcing. You may be able to heat the pin with an iron and pull it out with a pair of needle nose pliers. Then re-solder the connection and push it back in. I cant tell from the pictures but it almost looks like the solder connection is out the side in which case you wouldn't need to pull the pin.

I'm pretty sure this transformer is toast, there was a fire going on as soon as I powered it up. There was a flame for a few seconds. I literally had to blow it out! I'm sure the insulation in the tranformer broke down and there's no fixing this transformer. Does anyone know where I could find a replacement transformer?

Cut off the burned portion of the output, along with a piece of wire and gently restore the circuit external connection wires

Well Caleb and Kasfamily, thanks for the feedback, I didn't think I would be able to rework the connection but I did! The board definitely has some fire damage, but it is up and running. I appreciate your feedback big time. I'm having some quirky issues now, not exactly sure what's going on, my Philips remote for my other tv doesn't seem to be working with this one. I'll find another remote and see if it makes a difference. Hopefully not a e-prom issue.
Thanks again guys, you saved me some serious $$$!

Glad you got it up and running.

Hey Guys-
I'm back again. I just got the remote I needed for this and started watching the tv. After an hour or so, the picture went out. Still had the sound, but no picture. Any idea's? Caps look fine, but I know that doesn't mean anything. If I shut the set off and power back on, it will be ok for a while again.

Does the voltage droop? Probably vsus is dropping out, check for cold joints in that area.

Check inverter caps, and smd fuse on the board.
