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.
If a defective ignition module, (or bad plugs/ wires) causes a misfire condition, one or more plugs won't fire. The uneven power pulses cause engine shaking.
An engine computer does not cause a misfire but merely reports it. The misfire is probably caused by the ignition coil or plug wires
No it will not cause misfire.
did you changed your thermostat? You MUST keep around 195 degree thermostat in the vehicle at ALL TIMES due to the computer system. The ignition module usually gets hot due to corroded electrical connections at the ignition module and or the module is HEAT SENSITIVE and needs to be replaced. (plug wires) Ignition misfire can produce a variety of driveability symptoms including hard starting, rough idle, hesitation....
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
Ignition module.
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.
bad ignition timing.
Faulty: spark plug, spark plug wire, ignition coil, ignition module, fuel injector are the most common. Coolant leaking into a cylinder is another. Internal engine problems such as burnt valve, broken valve spring, bent push rod, worn rings

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.
