Kenmore 583356820 Transformer
A basic electrical transformer is a simple device used in a wide variety of products which includes your forced air system as it changes a normal current of electricity usually from a higher voltage to a lower voltage. If any transformer needs to be swapped out, it would be a good idea to buy one that is measured to the right voltage for the sake of safety. Heating and cooling transformers may have specific specs so be sure you replace it with the same electrical requirements.
Red flags of a worsening electrical transformer
- Transformer looks as if it has melted slightly or could smell like its burning when it has electricity going through it
- No power measured from the HVAC transformer while being tested
- Flawed voltage is determined from the output of the transformer
