Yes, a faulty ignition control module can cause an engine to stall. This component is responsible for regulating the ignition timing and firing the spark plugs. If it malfunctions, it can lead to erratic spark delivery or no spark at all, resulting in engine misfires or stalling. Additionally, it may cause starting issues or intermittent loss of power while driving.
What happens depends greatly on which module fails. If the engine control module (computer) fails it may cause the engine to run poorly or not at all. If the ignition module fails the engine won't start.
Yes, a faulty ignition control module can contribute to pinging in an engine. Pinging, or pre-ignition, occurs when the air-fuel mixture ignites prematurely in the combustion chamber. If the ignition control module is not providing the correct timing for spark delivery, it can lead to improper combustion and increased engine knock, resulting in pinging. It’s important to diagnose and address any ignition system issues to maintain optimal engine performance.
The ignition module will send a signal when the key is turned. If the module is no good the signal is not sent to the other ignition parts,thus not allowing the car to start
sounds like the ignition control module
An ignition module controls the timing and delivery of electrical signals to the ignition coil, which ignites the air-fuel mixture in the engine's cylinders. If the ignition module malfunctions or fails, it can lead to incorrect timing or inconsistent spark production, causing incomplete combustion. This results in engine misfires, reduced performance, increased emissions, and possible damage to other engine components. Regular diagnostics can help identify issues with the ignition module before they lead to significant problems.
Could be a coil or ICM, Ignition Control Module.
It can.
There are none. Ignition timing is not adjustable. Ignition timing and spark advance are handled by the engine controller module and the ignition control module, with inputs from various sensors. The engine controller is located by the passenger kick panel. The ignition controller is the thing the ciol pack mount on...it runs about $110 new. The ignition controller is often the cause of rough running, or idle problems as the spark advance function tends to crap out on this model of DIS ignition. Producing a constant error code, and therefore a constant check engine light.
Since the compression is good I would not expect it to be a burnt valve. It could be timing if the timing chain has excess play. I would also check the ignition module and the engine control module. We had a 1986 Chevy Celebrity that had an ignition problem that cause it to run badly and backfire. The service engine soon light was blinking but not posting a code. We changed the engine control module and it fixed the problem.
dead battery, or a bad ignition control module inside the distribureator.
it can, but i would check the ignition control module first....then the crank sensor.....
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
