The assimilator, as far as I know, is identical to the Lucas 3AW used on old British classic cars.I have take apart a Lucas 3AW to try repair it.It operates on a simple principle. It is a temperature operated relay. As voltage is applied, a bimetallic strip is heated that eventually moves and breaks the normally closed contact. The normally closed contact keeps the ignition warning light on.If the assimilator innards are the same as a Lucas 3AW, then there is no harm to leave it as is. ie not working.
