Hello Tom,

Checking across the primary leads (pic 1) I get a reading of .50 – 1 ohm. Checking across what I believe to be the secondary windings (pic 2) I get no reading at all.  I found it interesting that the leads shown in pic 2 were actually just pressed up to the coil tabs and not soldered, apparently that had worked for some time.  I’ve heard these coils are quite durable so I’m not sure what to think of my findings?

Blake, appears I may need the armature plate assembly and a few other components, I’ll message you regarding.

Thanks for the support.
