So I have a minelab x-terra 305 and really need to figure out how to hard-wire the coil to the control box...I have no idea which wires go where because the male and female connections have been removed (long story)...I'll try to attach some pics so you can understand my dilemma better...but basically the control box has 6 wires (blue, red, yellow, black, grey, green) but the coil has 8 (brown, brown/white, blue, blue/white, green, green/white, yellow, yellow/white)...I have hunted the internet and the only thing I can find is which color wire from the control box goes to each pin on the connector pin 1 Blue pin 2 yellow pin 3 green pin 4 Black pin 5 red pin 6 grey But that doesn't exactly help me much...here are a couple pics...i hope I've explained everything ok....let me know if you have any questions for me...thanks so much in advance

why not just see if you can purchase a new coil for the 305 i believe you can still get coils for the Xterra line

I unfortunately don't have the means to do that....things have been tight financially lately :(
