[W126 Coupe] SEC Starting Failure After a Massive Downpour

[a figment of the imagination]

Hi all,

Okay, I'm not playing the game of swapping out parts
from different series SEC's.  You got me clearly
convinced, actually for everything but the ignition
control module part, at least.  However, I'll bet
these are not the same either between the 380, 420?,
500, 560 series, but may be someone else here knows,
for sure.

So, I'm placing my money on the ignition control
module and switching unit, MBZ part number 0025452632.
 Someone mentioned these part numbers last week.  I'm
betting that moisture got into this unit or, most
likely, that I simply burned it out trying to start my
SEC on Friday the 13th (last week) after a massive
downpour.

Check out these pix, enclosed.

SO, the big question for me is whether anyone here has
had any luck trying to fix one of these before. I need
to replace OpAmp Number 1, which smells like burnt
toast mixed with gasoline and engine exhaust
fumes.....mmmmm, yummy...kinda like the fresh smell of
napalm in the morning...or better yet, bad coffee!!!!

Please help.  I can do the work, if someone can help
me find the big cheese (electronic op amps).
