all TDI owners check there coils. As you know, mine broke last year and Don Dodson replaced mine along with many others that were broke
in the same place. Look right where the bolt goes through, if it's cracked you will see it.
I found out mine was cracked when the detector went crazy when it was raining. I looked down and noticed the coil was cracked right near the plastic bolt
that goes through to hold the coil.
Glad to see you are back in business Matt, now you will probably go back out and find another plate.
