So I talked to a tech. guy who works at fisher in Texas. He could not find the schematic for the gold strike. He was able to give me 3 pin codes, I need 5. 5 wires goes off the circuit board and to a 5
pin switch craft connector numbered 1-5. 5 being in the middle. The cable that comes up from the coil that plugs into that connector, I opened it up a little to see if I could match the wires. No way. It some how turns into 2 wires that go into the coil. This would be so easy if I had the schematic for it. If fisher does not have it, Who does? Just need to know which color wires goes to the 5 pin connector in the control housing. Any advise will be helpful. Thank you.

Keith Wills at East Texas Detectors would have the wiring code, but be brief with him, get what you need, thank him and move on. His web site is brokendetectors dot com

As far as that fifth wire in the control housing number 5 will most likely just go to ground the connector housing body. The center pin on the coil connector isn't used, but its possible that if the center pin is connected in the control housing it could be for lab testing only.

The coil cable actually only has two wires in it,
A white wire with a braided shield.
A red wire with a braided shield. (all the modern coil cables that I've seen are the same, this combination gives them four separate wiring points)

I doubt very seriously that a person can figure out how to wire the connector on the coil by looking at anything on the inside of the control housing, wire colors are probably not the same.

If the wiring for the C$ coil didn't work then I'm going to say that Keith would be your next best bet, or hit another forum and try to find somebody else with a Gold Strike.

Are you needing the wiring for the connector on the coil, or for the connector in the control housing?

I've tried to follow topics on here for the Coinstrike and the Gold Strike, to be honest I'm not sure there is any Gold Strike owners on here? (there could be)
