Not all 2000 saturns have been recalled or so Im told I have a 2000 Saturn ls2 that ignition just stopped suddenlly one day turned over and nothing (good thing I have remote start)but when trying to get it fixed with recall they said there were very few affected by recall;;;let me know if you come up with ANY solutions,,thanks
Dont replace it!!! Take it to Saturn - ITS FREE - WAS RECALLED, goto the dealer and I am almost sure they will do it free of charge.
Try unpluging the Ignition control module while the key is in the on position. Wait until you here the relays click, then plug it back in, next do not shut the hood or door, try starting it. If it starts, then you either have a bad Ignition module, bad harness connector or a sticking relay. This is the problem I have on my 94, but it happens more when it is hot. I discvered this while searching the internet for my prolem. I saw this for both hot and cold conditions. It is call the famous Ford connector wiggle test. Good luck. If you find it to be something else, please respond back to this post as I have still to this day not figured out what the exact problem is. Still wiggling connector Run1
Your Fuel filter is attached to the fuel pump, which is located in the fuel tank if its a gasoline burning vehicle. Diesels should be located inline.
No, Apollo 7 was a manned test flight of the Command Module and never left Earth orbit. Apollo 11 was the first manned lunar landing.
Follow these instructions at your own risk. If you do not feel comfortable performing a check or lack the knowledge to take necessary precautions please have repair performed by a professional. I am not sure what you mean by "still have power steering", if you have power steering I would think the engine is running. I will go on the assumption that the engine is not running. There are basically three parts involved to create the spark - the module, the pickup, and the coil. Since you have already changed the most failure prone part, let me give you some quick checks. 1. Remove the distributor cap and have someone crank the engine while watching to see if the rotor/shaft of the distributor is turning. If it is not turning the rollpin which holds the drive gear to the shaft may have broken, timing chain snapped, or a broken camshaft. If it is not turning, it is a small job to lift the driver's valve cover so you can see if the valve train is moving when the engine is cranked. 2. If the distributor is turning, using a testlight between ground and the negative side of the coil crank the engine while observing the testlight. Blinking light indicates the electronics are pulsing the primary side of the coil and if there is no spark it is likely the coil. You can force the coil to spark by grounding the negative side for a brief second while the key is on. The negative side is typically the one that only has one wire on the terminal. Each time you ground the coil it should spark. Only ground the coil for a second!! 3. If the testlight stays lit (it will dim slightly when cranking), the pickup is lilkely at fault. The pickup is difficult to test so it is best to eliminate the other components first. 4. Additional information can be found at http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/TFI_Diagnostic.html
The most common causes of this problem you are having are a blown fuse; faulty headlight switch; or a short in trailer wiring. Check all fuses, look for damaged trailer wiring, and test the headlight switch. Correct any problems as needed. Sometimes a bad GEM module can cause this problem. If no other problems are found, consider the possibility of a faulty GEM module.
ignition module on what?
Switch parts with another 91-95 Saturn and drive both until completely warmed up to see which car displays any temperature sensitive problems.
Answer testing ignition modulenot all part stores have the ability to test ignition modules,a sure sign would be discoloration of the module or if the outside of the module has a softness to it if neither is apparent you could go to advance auto stores and they do have a peice of equipment to test your module, I used to work at a advance auto parts store
Take it to AutoZone, and they can test it
Remove it and bring it to a NAPA store. They will test it free.
start the engine if it runs its good
I take mine to Autozone, they offer free testing of ignition modules.
take it off and take it to autozone they will check/test it for free
if you have the module off take it to a parts store(autozone/advanced auto,or whatever you have around your location) they should be able to test it for free. you may also want to check your pick up coil/coil and distributer.
Best advice is to get the Harley Shop Manual for your particular year Sportster. They have a 3 page diagnostic chart in mine for 1998. Follow through the test procedures outlined to tell if the ignition module or a related part is bad. You may need to make a special wiring harness test cable to be able to check certain voltages while the module is connected.
Many autopart stores have a machine to test it. The machines use a universal adapter to hook into the ignition control module. The ignition control module is in the distributor. If you mean the part that contains the ignition coil, when mine went bad I probed it with an ohmeter and then asked the parts store if I could test the resistances in a new coil before I bought it. Since the resistances of certain terminals weren't even close, I knew I had a bad coil.
The Distributer module on "92" S-10 Vin code "W" or "Z" is located on the distributer,you must remove the distributer cap to gain access to the ignition module. Once you have gained access to the ignition rotor it is always necessary to always test the module before replacing it.
