    Are you sure? It would seem very unlikely. Is it “open” (no continuity)?

    Yep. Using a regular multi-meter, i put one lead on the ground wire and one lead on the wire that goes to the points, the needle doesn’t move. When I test a good coil this way, the needle swings hard to the right side of the meter, indicating continuity.
