If it says tweeter coil, it is tweeter coil. 4.2K is not open and it says right there in the sch 4300 ohms. (yes it is given in the sch, just take a good look).
So, disconnect your tweeter, measure its field one more time, it will likely show full open.
Again, open means just that, open, no finite resistance present.
Check the wires just in case they are broken, but likely you will have to have your tweeter field redone.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
