Hoorayyy!!!
After the broken Ignitor module was soaked in acetone for quite some time, the potting or conformity coating, which covered the component side, got all rubbery, and finally became removable.
I gave it another shot at measuring the diodes, and sure enough, the 2 diodes circled in red were conducting both ways.
They looked awfully much like 1N4148 so I replaced them with such, and presto! Now the module is alive and a-kicking.
This is particularly great because it means that I can experiment and still have the bike on the road on a permanent basis.
Thanks, axman, for pointing this out. Now I will follow needles advice and replace the electrolytics too.
What a fine day it was.
Cheers, Finn Hammer
