Luis:
I second the notion to investigate a motor rewind shop. Is the current 
transformer open, shorted, or?
If you are lucky, they may be able to repair it. I had a Henry unit that was 
arcing to the core on the exterior. 
They were able to assess, reinsulate and then dip/bake it for a lot less than a 
new one would have cost.

If rewinding is the only remedy, plan on spending about what a new one would 
cost if available. Labor, and copper pricing
has gone crazy like everything else.
