| The
first step in "reversing" it was removing the IDM from its case.
The square blocks with the numbers on them are the
main capacitors that store power for firing the
injectors.
The tall silver rectangles are heat sinks for the
various high-voltage switching transistors, which are
held on by spring clips. The holes in the heat sinks are
for screws that fasten them to the base of the IDM case,
which acts as a radiator.

A different IDM with the heat sinks and
transistors removed.
Virtually every single component was desoldered,
until just the bare boards were left. |
