97 prelude, No spark issue

hondaowner22 · 10-29-2009, 09:33 PM

I am new to this site and i did check it see if there is any forum and couldnt find one... anyways..

I am working on a 97 prelude that does not have spark.. The cap and rotor were replaced because thats what they owner thought the problem was.. and still no spark. i tested the external coil and it was out of spec, soooo i replaced it with a known good one and still no spark. I tested the ICM the way i red how, by testing voltage going to it. and it was good(batt voltage). is there a way to actually test the igniter? i herd thoughs go bad hand in hand with coil in some cases..Or any other ideas..oh, all fuses are good as well as main relay,

thanks!

Ok! you already checked rotor, cap, and main relay and still no spark, how about crank sensor and TDC sensor if you got suspicious about your igniter module you can go to advance auto parts, if there is one they test that ones for free hopefully this helps....

Yeah it was the igniter.. i ended up just narrowing it down to that and a ECM and went for the cheaper one.. 80 bucks lifetime warranty =-)
