Bally, 1968I have a relay coil which is damaged
It is 100 Ohms KK-332 and is used in the hole kicker relay
I don't have one of these in my spares and they are not listed as available anywhere
I have plenty of 85 Ohm KK-331 coils and a 116 Ohm KK-3312 in my spares which look as though they would fit
Which of those would you use (assuming at least one will do the job) and why? (I'm looking to understand the impact of the higher or lower resistance)
Many thanks
David
Coils with lower resistance will be stronger, draw more current and run hotter than coils with higher resistance. If you have to pick between the two I'd start with the higher resistance coil. If it does the job there's no need for more power or heat.

MarkG that's very helpful, thank you. And I read your detailed post and found it thought provoking
currieddog if you can tell me where I can buy one I would be delighted to do so.
I'd already checked out PBR, Marco, Flippers.com and our European suppliers before I posted so I'd need to find a different supplier
