Ignition Control Module (Miata & Protege)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Mazda Protege, 2000 Mazda Millenia, 2000 Mazda MX-5 Miata, 2000 Mazda MPV, and 2000 Mazda 626. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Check ignition coil, ECM/PCM and high-tension lead connections. Check secondary coil winding and high-tension lead resistance. Measure voltage between ground and appropriate ECM/PCM terminals. See ECM/PCM TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION table. If all measurements are within specification, and misfire still occurs, replace distributor or ignition coil.
