Ouch mate, not another one! Hopefully you haven't damaged the one from your South Park. Smoke though, doesn't sound good, I have my fingers crossed for you. As others have mentioned, you need to check all secondary connections/circuits for a short. Transformers don't just fail, well very very rarely anyway. Your machine has a fault and you need to find and fix it before plugging in anymore transformers.
Hate to say it and it won't make you feel any better, I did give you that advice a couple of weeks ago........
If you do find a replacement, make sure you test the circuits immediately after the transformer for shorts. You don't want to fry the replacment.
Good luck, I feel sorry for you in this situation.
Yes, I have myself to blame on this one. Throwing caution to the wind "I'm sure the previous transformer had just gone bad over time. The new one will be fine. There are fuses in place to stop anything bad happening...."
The transformer should work again in South Park, but whether it is safe after this happening and smoke has come out of the transformer for a short period of time?
Once again, another pinball learning experience.
