Joachim,
I have no idea what it is, but it is definitely not electromechanical,
since it makes no noise whatsoever. I call it a "relay" since I don't know
of a better word, and that is basically what it does: open and close the
contact to the coils when the magnetic pick-up tells it to.

Serge,
<<with a magnetic sensor, and triggers the ignition coils with a relay.

That's not an electro/mechanical relay, is it?
At 3000 rpm it would have to cycle at 50 Hz! I guess that's possible and
the contacts would wear just like an old fashioned ignition system.
