Stihl 056AV EI Module needed

[BLTJr3]

SO, I've seem this posted awhile back but looking for current info/thinking on the subject. I need a replacement Electronic Ignition Module for a Stihl 056 AV. Best I can find is $192.xx on ebay. Has anyone tried to convert an EI back to a points and condenser setup? Alternatively I saw some info on replacing the capacitor but I need advice on the best solvent to attack the epoxy. thanks for any advice!

Welcome to AS

A ton of info on this here since Foggysail fixed the first Bosch ign. on a 056.

Post more/as much info on your saw with pictures and many here will help you out

I was just sitting down to start trying to do the tear down to get to the Cap on mine. Before I try to do all that…. What is your price on a replacement?

I don't have any. Just pointing out that you are looking at a thread on repairing a Bosch ignition and what you have in your photo is not a Bosch ignition.

It's a SEM GA type although another company apparently made it.

Ok, sorry, have you seen a thread on repairing the stihl labeled module?

I have a spare SEM module and flywheel in my parts collection.
