Testing A Voice Coil.......


SOUPNAZI

Recommended Posts

Hi all..... I finally got my KLF30 back from the fix it shop...they replaced the X over because the Mid wasn't working,anyhow the mid is fine now but the tweeter isn't working now ,so I replaced the voice coil with a spare I had...working now. What should be the resistance reading on a good voice coil off a KLF30 tweeter...?I did a continuity check and it failed...

Thanks

The continuity test should be enough to tell you if it's bad or not. No continuity = no contact. No contact = no complete circuit. No complete circuit = signal not getting to where it should go.

Something else to look for is if the bad diaphram's (this is what your actually replacing) copper winding is a dark, tarnished, burnt looking. It should be as bright as a brand new penny.
