Vintage organ with questionable trace repair back.

I ran the numbers and you're absolutely right, but I don't see any correlation between what the transformer should be outputting and my probing the pins.
I followed the diagram and found that the RED wire is VCC for a IC that can take up to +50v but the diagram doesn't specify what the wire carries.

Anyway, I lifted some caps that looked perfect and my parts tester recognized them as caps of the right values but under them was residue from leakage that clearly correlates to the area I'm seeing sparks fly.
So my guess is that RED and BLACK are getting partially shorted after the recrifier bridge D302, gonna clean up this afternoon and report back.
But now I'm scared of using the transformer due to the voltages >>1898111 calculated.
