I missed your question about using a heat gun on low. Yes, that should also work. Just don't get the DS module so hot you can't hold your hand on it or you may cause an otherwise-good module to fail.

What coil are you using?
Square or round?
If it is a round one, is it a stock DS2 coil?

I've seen this kind of thing happen from something as simple as a bad connection of one of the 18-Ga wires at the coil....
