I've had to replace it 3 times in 2 1/2 years.
Frequent ignition module failure can be caused from an over-voltage condition from the voltage regulator. Check your charging voltage at the battery when the vehicle is running, and it should not be higher than 14.3VDC.
Also, improper jump-starting using a "booster" style jump-starter can cause an ignition module to fail. Did the failure occur after jump-starting? Try using a standard trickle-charger in the future instead of jump-starting your car from a booster, or simply use jumper cables attached to another vehicle or fully-charged battery.
Be sure that the voltage at the primary side of your ignition coil is no more than 6.5VDC. If it is, replace the ignition resistor.
SOURCE: Ignition will not recognize the key chip and it will not start.
call a locksmith they have a reader and can tell if your key is the problem... it will tell them which keycode is for your vehicle and they can check and see if the key matches also i have a 95 ssei and the pcm was the problem with mine
SOURCE: Gas milage drop.
did you buy it at the dealer or autoparts store factory module is made for yourcar aftermarket are made for a lot of cars they are the not the same
fuel pump could be going bad check fuel pressure that will make it sputter,if that not the case check fuel filter.
do a compression test on cylnders
?€¢
The instrument panel integration module (IPM)
?€¢
The rear integration module (RIM)
Each of the 3 body control modules integrate a number of functional systems under the control of a single module. Each of the modules are connected to the Class 2 serial data line; many control signals are implemented by Class 2 messages.
On vehicles that have several control modules connected by serial data circuits, one module is the power mode master (PMM). On this vehicle the PMM is the DIM. The PMM receives 4 signals from the ignition switch.
To determine the correct power mode the PMM uses the following circuits:
?€¢
Accessory voltage
?€¢
Ignition 1 voltage
?€¢
Ignition 3 voltage
?€¢
Off/Run/Crank voltage
Your best bet would be to take to a repair shop that has knowledge of this type system . You probably don't need an ignition switch.
Discrete Ignition Signals
Those modules that have discrete ignition signal inputs also remain in the state dictated by the last valid PMM message received on the serial data circuits. They then check the state of their discrete ignition input to determine the current valid state. If the discrete ignition input is active, battery positive voltage, the modules will fail-safe to the RUN power mode. If the discrete ignition input is not active, open or 0 voltage, the modules will fail-safe to OFF-AWAKE. In this state the modules are constantly checking for a change status message on the serial data circuits and can respond to both local inputs and serial data inputs from other modules on the vehicle.
