check the pickup coil. that was the prob
check pickup in the distributor
Some of the trouble codes areÊP0100:ECM-6400 signal too low,or signal missing (Intake camshaft). P0011:ECM-640A Faulty Signal,P0013:ECM-6410 signal too low or signal missing (exhaust camshaft),P0201: ECM-2310 Signal Missing (Injector 1).
The ECM seldom goes bad, it can but it rarely does. A faulty crank sensor could give you those same symptoms. Check all other possibilities before you condem the ECM.
Do you have spark at the coil? If not it could be the coil but I would put my money on a faulty ecm. Happened to mine and the repaired ecm fixed it.
The "Check Engine" light will illuminate when the ECM (engine control module) receives a signal from a sensor that is out of its parameter. It could be a faulty sensor or the sensor may be doing its job reporting a problem to the ECM.
The ECM does. The module is only a pickup and a signal conditioner. There is a tan wire with a black stripe that disables timing advance when disconnected, so maybe that's whats going on. Its near the realay center on the firewall.
== == check that you are getting power to the distributor. i am assuming you are talking about a earlier model vehicle Have you checked the ecm relay? maybe the pickup coil assy.
Check your low voltage input to the coil with the key on. If there are no volts, then either your ECM isn't sending the signal or you don't have continuity through the wire. If there are volts, bad coil. There should be specs on what it should read but I'm not sure what they are
replace the ecm
Yes. On some vehicles, the Crank Shaft Position sensor tells the computer that you are trying to start the vehicle. Without that signal, the ECM will not control the spark coil.
Check the cam and crank sensors, odds are the coil is not being fired because it is not being told to do so by the ECM, which in turn uses a signal from the cam and crank to determine if the engine is turning over and at what point in the cycle it is in.
