Just some thoughts ...

Steve heated the coil with a heat gun and normal operation came back. So if the coil comes out, gets baked to remove the moisture, would it then be prudent to dip it in melted paraffin and drip dry to get rid of excess paraffin as soon as it comes out of the oven? The paraffin should seal it against moisture absorption for a long time?
