Help! XP Deus 2 with 9" FMF Coil not working

Howdy y'all! I have a Deus 2 with a 9# stock FMF coil. It's been a champ! I've been running software version 4.1 with no issues. But it seems the coil (or the main control unit) isn't working. I tend to think it's the coil. Everything charges fine and the coil pairs with the head unit. But it BARELY registers a detection. I thought it might be completely blown but if I hold it over a cell phone (EMI?) or a metal chair it will barely register..but it does. I have fully charged everything. I was running version 4.1 software on everything without issue. Any thoughts on what may be wrong or how to remedy? I did try to reflash the software which I believe was done fine-but same problem. Lastly, it's possible there was a surge from thunderstorms while it was plugged in..just putting that out there just in case. Anyone else have this problem and especially ..how did you fix it! I only have the 9" coil so I can't swap it with a known good coil or another control unit. Thanks for ANY help and advice!

So you reflashed all updatable compnonets? Coils don’t get updated.
If you have done this.
Insure all updatable components have same exact version.
Next.
Check remote external speaker for operation sweeping over a targrt . Ensure under options menu audio output is dialed up for remote external speaker.
If you can pair wireless headphone module do this and check for audio coming out of headphones.
If both of the above fail.
I have no further advice. Except send the unit in.
