I took one cdi almost apart and my soldering iron died. what I've found is a coil and a circuit board the bad news is the circut board is where my iron decided to lay down so I've not gotten all the epoxy off the board and I may have to take one more apart to get a better look at the inside as I took a dremel to it and it got ugly. So that where I'm at on that.
