Brenda,

Just had another thought -- lead dress to that SW coil could be something to look at.
If there was previous "messing around" right there, wire routing could be compromised.
Maybe the leads to the SW coil are reversed?

Leads to the coil being a little too long can alter the inductance a bit as well.
