not sure about treo but some companys will sell you a recone kit... if they do buy one and get someone local to do it that knows what the hell they are doing

and how do you know there is a hole in the coil?

 

[brench 10+ year member]

Because i took into a local shop and they where going to try to fix it

eh last time i check coils are hidden in the motor but i could be wrong... call treo and see if they will sell you the parts for a recone then find someone who actually knows what they are doing to do it for you

Perhaps it was the spider and they are confused? I agree with the recone idea. If they are mistaking the spider for a coil, then they probably shouldn't be who you let do it.

if the spider has a hole can that cause one of my voicecoil not to read its ohms, sorry if im asking stupid questions im new to this game

Weird ohm readings usually mean burned coil or possibly something like severed leads. Frankly, without a specific diagnosis, a recone kit would be your best bet. There should be a speaker workhouse (for studio and home audio repair) around and not just car audio places. So that can help broaden your search for people who may be able to do the procedure.
