Replace 96 Lexus ignition control module - 1994 Lexus Es 300

Here is an interesting forum about that.

More then one modular ? Module ! Ignition module ? Which engine ? 2.2 L or 4.3 L

2.2 L has no dist.The electronic ignition (EI) system does not use the conventional distributor and coil.

4.3 L Enhanced Ignition System (Overview)
The ignition system initiates combustion by providing a spark to ignite the compressed air and fuel mixture at the correct time. In order to provide an improved engine performance, fuel economy, and control of exhaust emissions, the control module controls the distributor spark advance, or timing, with the ignition control (IC) system.
The ignition system uses a primary and secondary sub system in order to accomplish the timed spark distribution. The primary system consists of a low voltage trigger device which determines the base timing. This signal is modified by the ignition control driver (ICD) module. The signal travels to either or both the engine and transmission processor (control module) for base timing reference. Another signal is sent back to the ignition control driver (ICD) module, which has been adjusted by the control module (advanced or retarded) in order to trigger the coil, according to the requirements of the engine.
The secondary system consists of the ignition coil which has primary, or low voltage, windings and secondary, or high voltage, windings. The secondary side of the ignition coil generates a high voltage which high tension spark plug wires deliver to the spark plugs.
The control module controller now controls the ignition control (IC) and bypass functions.
In order to properly control the ignition and combustion timing, the control module needs to know the following things:
• The crankshaft position
• The engine speed or RPM
• The engine load -- manifold pressure or vacuum
• The atmospheric or barometric pressure
• The engine coolant temperature
• The camshaft position sensor

No module in the distributor

The master relay is stuck or the body control module is defective.

It doesn't have one. That function is done by the Powertrain Control Module directly to the coils.

have you replaced the ignition control module in the distributor

Have you replace the ignition pickup inside the distributor .

Try the throttle position sensor, or the idle air control valve. If crank sensor is bad it won't start at all. Does it have the check engine light on? What are the codes???

hello your vehicle is equip with the ignition module it is called ECM Electronic control module

uesually in the steering column belly

There was a problem in the 96 luminas with the Ignition relay in the under hood fuse box.
I would try trading the Ignition relay with a matching relay in the fuse box and see if the problem goes away, make sure you mark the old ignition relay so you can find it later. If the problem stops, purchase a new relay and replace the old one.
Below is a schematic of your under hood fuse block.
Good luck, let me know.
