Dead single coil?

I had been driving myself crazy the last few weeks trying to figure out what's wrong with my Strat pickups. I soldered everything and now the tone and volume knobs work fine, but the middle pickup single coil sounds very weak and tiny. I checked with a multimeter and my neck pickup reads about 10K, bridge humbucker reads 16K, but my middle pickup reads nothing. Is this a conclusive way of determining that the middle pickup was damaged? Is there any chance this is a bad solder with the black ground wire?
