This is a very informative thread. I just have one other question in regards to substitutions. So I have a Allied Leisure 264-1-46 (9 ohms) and I plan to change it with a Williams AE1-26-1200. It's the same size, same gauge wire. But the diode is on the opposite leg of the coil. Do I just hook up the new coil with the wires in reverse or do I flip the diode over on the coil and hook the wires up the same way as the original. Just wanting to make sure I do this substitution right as I don't want to fry anything on this board as they are difficult to repair. Thanks in advance.

Quoted from slochar:
You can do either, leave the diode as is and flip the wiring, or flip the diode and use the same position of the wire - whichever is easiest. As long as the correct wire goes to the banded side of the diode you're good.

that's what I figured just wanted to make sure. Thanks very much!
