    Can coils be repaired?

    More specific:
    I purchased a Detech SEF WSS 10 X 5 coil for my White's M6 a few years ago, and used it very little.

    I brought it back out this year, and it's not working.
    Nada. Nothing. Dead. No signal.
    Jiggling / wiggling wire didn't change anything.
    Tried it on a different White's machine, same result.

    Is it trashed, repairable, something I can check

    Any advice is appreciated.

    Depends on where it broke, and how the coil is built. If it's in the connector, it's probably fixable. That's where I would start. If it's in the coil or cable, and the coil is epoxy-poured, not fixable. If the coil is not epoxy-poured you still have a chance, albeit a slim one.
