Don't use it. Get a replacement.
While the problem may be as simple as a disconnected lead inside, getting to said lead might be difficult if not impossible due to the 110V and filament windings would above the HV winding, which is usually the innermost winding in a power transformer.
If the problem is more serious (i.e. burned out half-winding), you're taking a big chance with continuing to use it. I would replace it and be done.
One man's opinion...that's all...
