Thanks both of you, I'll check the coil when I get home and try the 'bypass' trick.

Brenda, l can send you a PDF if you like, or Jerry can I sent him one already. Just let me know, if his picture isn't enough info.

Thanks Jerry for posting!

One more thing. If something is wrong with the coil, can i remove it, (probably need to clean it off, looked like some dust etc. can I use alcohol and cue tips? Or no?) anyway, do I want to attempt re-winding the thing myself…I’m pretty good a copying what is already there, but I’ll take a look, hopefully a loose or crappy wire is all.

Thanks for the diagnosis Brenda!
