Insignia NS-32L430A11 / Vizio E320VL inverter transformer needed

[mu2]

Hi,

I have an Insignia NS-32L430A11 that needs an inverter transformer.
The inverter / power supply board is an FSP121-2FS01
Looks like it is also used in some versions of the Vizio E320VL. That Vizio part number is 0500-0405-1010.

The actual part number on the transformer is 8TC00569 and I can't seem to find that exact part anywhere.

Is there a substitute transformer available that will work?
Maybe a more rugged version?
The transformer has a shorted secondary.
The photo of the transformer and board is shown in another Badcaps post

Transformer is shown in photo #4.

Thanks,
Mike

It has two secondary high voltage windings, so one is shown as shorted?

Yes,

One winding is around 1k and the other is a lot less.
The lower resistance winding has visibly burned windings on underside of the transformer (under the yellow tape).
I see that Shop Jimmy has a repair kit for the Vizio board but there is no number shown on the transformer supplied.

That transformer is hard to find, when the winding is burnt like that can be due to the lamps are drawing too much current.
