Well,
I am getting 12 volts DC before and the same after the coil; No voltage
change;
Does this mean something is wrong?
I am testing as many point around the circuits on a TV TEAK M687 and I
suspect this coil to be faulty, however it does have a resistance of
1.1 ohms

Al,

An inductor (coil) is almost pure inductance (hence the name) & very little
resistance, thus on dc it presents a low resistance (as you've indicated).
Thus if there is minimal load there will be minimal voltage drop across it
(what's the dc current?). What is the application the inductor is being
used for?

Also, are you sure its 10uH and not 10 mH.
