That sounds like the TCI box, which is what controls the ignition. These were usually the first thing we would change when the engine quit. And 5 out of 6 times, that would cure a non-running condition.
A common mistake some of the less experienced mechanics would make was to stick a meter or test light probe into the wires running to or from the TCI. The outer portion of the wires is a grounded loom, so when they would manage to get a power reading, it was usually just long enough to burn out the core of the wire.
Also, note that there are two wires which can be plugged in interchangeably to the wrong spots on the TCI.

Not sure what you can use to bypass the TCI. It likely is possible to make a different ignition control unit work in it's place, but there just aren't that many ignition units in 24Volt.

Sorry, but I kept very little of anything having to do with the Iltis, other than maybe a parts CD.
