Want this question answered?
The ECM (engine control module ) is located on the center of the firewall just above the motor. It's the thing that has a lot of wires going to it.
I've reading alot on this latley, and seem to be having the same problem. I believe it can. I am going to replace my ignition control module tonight and see if my injectors then start working on my K2500 7.4
It's called the EEC (Electronic Engine Control Module) or the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) It is located under the instrument panel on the floor tunnel ahead of the floor console. It has a ton of wires going into it.
Sounds like your electronic control module is going bad
if you have been having intermittent power-accessory or dash light failure, and/or the car won't stay started (no idle), then yes, it can be your ignition switch module. when car won't idle, try turning and holding the key halfway between Start and On; if it then idles normally, it is definitely your ignition switch module. easy to replace.
What exactly is going on with the car that is making you believe that the ignition module is bad to begin with? Does it not turn over, no power, are there any lights that come on the dashboard? What kind of key is used in this car? Does it have a "chip" in the key?
Absolutely.
A 1983 isn't going to have a control module - it's all in the resistors in the stalk switch.
No fire going to the plugs from distributor have fire up to the module none coming out what do I check for next
Where is the ignition module located on a 1993 Dodge Stealth? Ignition control module is located directly under the coil pack. (where the plug wires run into). It's a small black box, only about 3" X 3", and has two plugs going into it. It's held on by two Phillips head screws, which I use a 90 degree Phillips driver to get to one, and a long screwdriver for the other. You can also take off the bracket it sits on.
I would check the ignition module located immediately to the right of your valve cover. A friend of mine has a Chevy Corsica that had the ignition control module or coil go bad and his car ran terrible. Ford stopped using distributors in Ford Escorts and their other 4 cylinder cars, because the TFI module on the distributor were notorious for going bad.
If you're not using a heat sink grease between the module and the mount area try using some on your next replacement module.
