Kellogg 925 wiring diagram

[poplar1]

B925 BAX.  I traced the wiring yesterday, the the wires off the coil aren't wired the same as the diagram.  The wiring seems all original and not messed with.  I'll write down how it's wiring now, and then wire it according to the diagram and see what happens. 

Now that I see your photos and diagram, I don't think the 21236 diagram will help.

Here are the Signal Corps designations:

The 925BAX is in Kellogg's 1941 Catalog #100, page 56, but there is no wiring diagram there.

925BAX contains 116-G ringer, 106-A induction coil, 203 condenser, 58729 internal connecting rack, and 62391 plunger switch plate assembly.

The 106A 3-winding induction coil has 4 soldered connections + 2 screw terminals.
"Furnished with two screw terminals to obtain greater side tone reduction where required. May be used in telephones used for kick coil service."

The 3-winding 203 Condenser may be used for "kick coil" service.

See if this diagram matches your drawing, less dial of course.

`Something else I found is the 5-3 terminal on the coil does not put out any voltage.  I assumed this would be + as it goes to the RD terminal, but could this be ground?  Only Terminal #2 on the coil puts out + voltage.

[wds]

with the exception of #5-3 on the coil, yes.  My phone is wired #5-3 to RD on the hookswitch.

Have you tried wiring it to this diagram to see if it resolves your problem?

I guess you have it now, here are a modified circuit, (Dial removed)
I guess your drawing of the capacitor are right.

Hallelujah!  It works.  Thanks everyone for your help.  I will save that drawing as I have another one of these I need to work on.  What started this whole mess was when I got this phone the handset cord had been cut in half, so I found another original cord to take it's place.  When I wired it up just like the last cord, nothing worked.  I'm guessing now that the previous owner couldn't get the handset to work so his solution was to cut the cord.  Now the task of putting the phone back to together.

Here's a pic. of the little rascal.
