New clarification - the little coil is not a resistor, but just the remnants of a wire nut...duh! Now just to find a replacement insulated stainless steel wire, but I'm striking out so far...why would GM use stainless steel instead of copper, and could I substitute? I was able to find single strand and insulated 24 gauge tin-coated copper...
