Quoted from Chochi_ca:

So I found q2 transistor on the PPB Board to b bad(pre drive transistor Iā€™m guessing?). I swapped out the transistor with the knocker transistor on the PPB Board that tested good. Upon power up the coil is still energized. I rechecked the q2 transistor and it blew(shorted btw legs)

any diodes on that coil?if yes then it is possible one of the diodes is bad and blowing out that transistor.
the coil,the diodes on that coil(if any are there.) the pre drive transistor-small one,the main transistor-big one.all these would need to be tested at the same time,so you wont be doing/replacing them over and over again.

Quoted from Chochi_ca:

K I removed the diode from the coil it test 560 ohms one way other way is open. The coil has 4ohms between. Does that sound good? Is the pre transistor on the cpu board or the PPB Board? Thanx for all the help btw.

to test a diode your meter would have to be set on diode setting.....Why is there 2 threads for this issue?This just makes it more confusing,step by step is always best.Not jumping around
