Well, one was fairly easy.
They use screwed up way of connecting the trimmer cap to the coil by running a separate wire from it to the same lug the coil onnects to, and this wire has rotted out (green desease).
The other, I was able to solder a magnet wire to the anode coil, and not put a dab of fabric glue for it to immobilize, waiting to dry.
Meantime I noticed I pre-threaded the other end of the wire via the wrong eyelet, so I will thread another one, tie a nod and pull it.
The short has misteriously disappeared while I was manipulating the coils, which I do not like, but OK, maybe it was a loose end or tilted can (which is a problem here - the cans ARE loose in their bases).
