wht/blu wire should be ground so that's good there isn't any voltage on it.
Small white and blu/yel are also grounds.

You said DX, but it seems you have a swap, right?
DPFI distributor (found on the DX) does not have a blk/yel or a wht/blu.

Gentleman replacing the igniter solved my problem earlier in year,but this last fail I decided to change the entire distributor, there are no trouble codes also I have no idea what a A/T control unit is??? I'd like to know on mechanical side of the ignition switch is there contacts involved when switching the positions Acc I II &III

A/T = "Automatic Transmission control unit"
