No output. Ohmmeter resistance shows infinite on primary and secondary.
2 leads on primary, 2 on secondary, going to 4 diodes on the circuit board.

Does it look badly burnt or is there no physical sign of stress?

It would be very unlikely that both windings would go O/C simultaneously
unless it had failed catastrophically and that would be rather obvious
from the outside.

Simple question:  Did you measure the resistance between the two ends of
the same winding or are the terminals laid out in a confusing way, so
you measured resistance between two different windings?
