See if you have a flashing ground to the other wire going to the coil while cranking?

How does that tell me where Ignition Control Modular is located?Thanks for your reply .

I was just trying to get more info which engine do you have 2.0 or 2.5L?

I'm sorry,it's a 2.5L-thanks again

I can't find the location of it anywhere in my online repair info possibly the intake manifold back of the engine area?I see them for sale for that car I am going to ask another moderator.Also any codes?Have you checked the crankshaft position sensor yet?

Thanks for your dedicated effort.I also have tried repair info on line(autozone/alldata)a couple forums/blogs and this website.I've purchased coil pack-put on & still no fire to spark plug,so I checked ICM price & shutterred when they said $250.00 new,but purchased anyway.Proceeded to look for Said ICM,have windshield wiper covers off,inner fenderwels both off,battery & powerbox out or moveable.jacked up 1 1/2 foot off floor,both front tires off etc,etc..Then I've started under rightside interior panels,power control modular taken out and I'm headed for the headlights and front grille,next.Did I mention it's a Canadian production model?
Enjoy the evening,I'm going to!!!

Have you checked the crank shaft position sensor?I would check that it will cause no spark and you can check it with a multi meter to test it.The other moderator I asked couldn't find it ethier and thought it was inter grated into the pcm.

I hope & pray you & your friend are right.I'll still pull headlites just for the sake of it.I'll purchase a sensor for $14.00 about,and return ICM which will be like Xmas all over.($200.- $14.00 = $186.00 gift.LOL
What can I do for U?Already said a couple prayers for U and yours.
Thanks! ron

Thank you for the prayers measure the resistance of the old crank sensor?

what should resistance be?And is that measured at sensor pins(looks like 2 pins,without taking off connect).Thanks in advance for your help. Ronnie

You would unplug the sensor and measure across the terminals of the sensor. I can't find the spec on it bit most sensors are usually between 800-1200 ohms.

Great I'll do that.
thanks ron

Keep me posted
