Coil repair person

I have a Fisher Coin Strike 8" coil which stopped working. I called Fisher/First Texas, which kind of said good luck with that one since the Coin Strike is an obsolete model. So anyone know of someone who fixes coils?

I looked at images for the coin strike coil online but didn't see the connector in the images. Other Fisher coils appear to have a metal DIN connector which can be disassembled. If you are feeling capable and have the tools, you could take the DIN connector apart and look at the solder connections to see if you have any corroded, broken, or shorted wires. If your problem is in the coil, there is probably little hope for repair.
