I have a half alive pickup. It's a Reflex Reds series humbucker, similar to EMG, encased in plastic and epoxy resin. There are 4 leads coming out of one of the conductor cables, and there must be some break because I cannot get the full humbucker t sound. I know the wiring because I have the schematic, and the Yellow to Red coil is dead. The White to Black coil is alive.
I want to know how can I revive the dead coil? I want to take it apart but it seems like it would destroy the outer casing. I have my own casing I could repot but I don't want to do that.
I don't understand electronically what is going on..
When I read from Yellow to Blue (output), I get 449 ohms.
Also...
When I measure White to Bare, I get 449 ohms.
When I measure White to Black, I get 334 ohms
When I measure Black to Bare, I get 115 ohms
But when I measure yellow to Red, Black, or white, I get 0 ohms
In the normal working condition, I believe the black and red are series link. The White is Start (North) and the yellow is Start (South)
The the top 4 conductor cable has the Blue output with Bare wire
The bottom 4 conductor cable has the Yellow, Red, Black, and White cable.
I would love to get this to work again..But I don't know how.
Thanks,
Glen
