Restoring a 46-1226 Code 125
#38

I found the break in the wire of the antenna transformer by connecting one lead of the ohmmeter to the center tap lug on the bottom of the coil form, then using the other meter lead to move along the circumference of the top winding. I could hit a certain spot and establish continuity. I began to work on that spot with my finger nail and also a scribe and eventually managed to break away some of the original glue that held the end of the winding to the rest of that coil section. I wound up with about 3/8" of lead to work with. I used a small white wire from very small shielded audio cable to make the connection to the end of the exposed wire after first tinning the end until the litz wire insulation was burned back enough to tin about 1/16" of the wire. The other end of the wire was attached to the solder lug on the coil form that the white wire from under the chassis was attached to and soldered. I used some magic mending tape to secure the new white wire to the coil form body and then shrunk the white heat-shrink tubing I had slid over the small white wire. Next some clear plastic glue was used to stabilize the soldered wire to wire end at the coil. Here is a picture of the repaired coil.
