Yeah, poor choice of words. By chip I meant start working. The heat gun worked really well, thanks for the tip. Took about 170F to soften it up. Used Q-tips to gently remove the wax. I still have an insulation layer on it to deal with. I'm going to take it real slow and make sure I have everything I need before I start unwinding. I didn't see any obvious failure areas but there's clearly an issue in the coil between the #5 and #6 terminals. I need to determine the AWG and get some wire, determine what kind of insulating tape to use and how to keep the wires in place while winding. I could also use some new eyeballs and a pair of smaller hands as well. Thank you for the advice.
