Mitsubishi LT-5V

Hey everyone! Sorry if this is a question that is answered somewhere in here but I couldn't find a thread for it.
I have a Mitsubishi LT-5V turntable I got about 4 years ago. Everything was functional on it. I had it sitting on its table for about 3 months and hadn't played anything on it. I went and plugged it in and it won't come on anymore. I got in the back of it with a multimeter and poked around. I found out that I lose power at the power transformer. So, I'm assuming that's what needs replaced. The question I have is: Does anyone know what the spec is on the power transformer? I was going to try to find a modern alternative. Or A good place to obtain an original replacement? I've tried to scour around and I can't find anything on it. I've looked through the manual and the schematics I could find online and I can't see any information on what the ranges/ratings are for it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Thanks a lot!
I'm from the US so we're 120V/60hz. But, I'll try to open it and look at it. It can't get more broken than it is.
It's shelled in metal and it looks like there's a little corrosion on the side but I certainly hope it's just a fuse inside of it. I do know it didn't have the wonderful burnt transformer smell when I opened it up.
 
Note in the dark grey area T'former view, there are also 2 capacitors and a resistor.
Not quite sure what PT101 that couples to the rectifier represents w/o looking at the parts list.
perhaps worth checking out.
