Statesman SERII: Ignition Problem

[xMilz]

Hey fellas, just a quick one, i need to get a new what the red square is around on the attached picture. Just had the NRMA look at it and i honestly cant remember what he said it was. I think im leaning towards an ignition module?

OK, Thanks.

Ignition module is correct.

xMilz, what is your cars symptoms? Because Im trying to figure out a problem in my car also, just trying to match up to see if I have the same problem.

[xMilz]

Turn the key and it just tries to start but doesnt. i took out the plug on the module and tried again same thing, it just turns over not continue to run.

Hmm, mine will sometimes start quickly, other times just sit there and crank heaps, then slowly fire and splutter a bit.

that happened to mine but the coil pack went, then the ignition module
happened when i stopped at a set of lights. cost me 550 to do both. My ignition mod was replaced with a better one so if my coil goes again it wont take the ign mod with it.

You know whats really ****ing me off now? I had an NRMA check the vehicle he straight up said to me and said i have a weak spark, replace the module and it will be fine, so i bought one, installed it, took a big breath and turned the key before i knew swear words came flying out.
Rang NRMA again told them to get me a tow truck for in the morning. Patrol came and had a look at it pulled off a spark plug lead and put a tester on it and it was getting spark. Pulled out the plug for the injectors and tested them uhuh he says. You have no pulse getting to your injectors. Then he started going on with many possibilities like harmonic balancer etc. Im like ok lets tow it to the holden service, wouldnt holden be able to try and find the problem? He suggested to take it to the auto electrician so i said fine. So its getting towed in the morning.
