There's a zipped MSWord-file on the disassembly of the control head here:

http://www.tr-register.com.au/Files/technical/ControlHead.zip

Although it doesn't deal with reassembly of the thing, it may still be of
some help in finding out where all the little parts should go.

Good luck!

Eric (who, after reading the MSWord-file, decided not to bother with
trying to repair his car's previous failed control head but like a lazy,
modern consumer just forked out $99.- for a new one. It said 'made in
Taiwan' on the box...)
