I've never seen that happen. It's really rare for an ECM to go bad.
A 1998 Ford Taurus uses the Electronic Distributorless Ignition System ( EDIS ) with a coil pack , so there is no distributor
what is the number coil pack
The 2002 Ford Taurus V-6 engine ignition coil can be found on the firewall in the engine compartment. The coil is located on the drivers side of the firewall.
In a 2000 Ford Taurus , the 3.0 liter " Duratec " DOHC - V6 has the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system . So there are ( 6 coil packs )
On a 2001 Ford Taurus : The coil pack towers should be numbered ( at least they are on any other Ford coil pack that I have seen ) coil-----3 - 4 pack----2 - 6 plug-----1 - 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Also , the spark plug firing order is ( 1 - 4 - 2 - 5 - 3 - 6 ) The engine cylinder locations are numbered : firewall 1-----2-----3 4-----5-----6 front of Ford Taurus V6 > driver

The spark on a 99 Taurus is initiated by the computer, when it receives inputs from the cam and crank sensor telling it the engine is turning. Once the computer receives these signals from the sensors, it sends an electrical signal to the ignition module, which fires the coil packs sending spark through the plug wires to the spark plugs. If there is no spark, one of the links in the chain is broken. Usually, it ends up being either the cam or crank sensors, or the ignition module or coil packs. Rarely is it ever the computer.
No , it has a coil pack for the 6 engine cylinders
Just got my car repaired, the cause was a partially clogged heating coil. They fixed it by doing a full flush of the coil and the coolant system.
The coil wire.
A coil pack assembly is a coil that controls 4 or more cylinder using separate igntion wires for each. On a Taurus it will control the 6 cylinders.
The 1998 Toyota ignition coil is located on the firewall, in the engine compartment. The ignition coil can be found on the passenger side of the firewall.
