Southern Hardstyle Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 my cordia was working fine yesterday, tried to start it tonight and it keeps turning over but wont start. coil makes like 2 ticking noises making me think its that but prefer a 2nd opinion. anything i can do to test my coil to see if it is infact that?

rob Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 checked the ballast resistor? (assuming it has one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Check to see if its getting spark, fuel and compression. If it has this, it should work if the timing is setup right Sudden break normally happens when you poke the car with a hammer or screwdriver. You changed anything at all in the last little while? Anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 check for spark, if it doesn't have spark then I bet the E101 (ignition module) unit on the firewall is on the blink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Hardstyle Posted November 8, 2009 Author Share Posted November 8, 2009 yeah no spark going from ignition moduel to dizzy. hasnt been playing up, getting fuel and all. Got a mate @ autostop pricing me up another ignition module tomorrow hope it isnt too expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84_S12 Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I blame Mitsubishi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I blame Mitsubishi but why? his problem has nothing to do with smoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 lol I've seen some E101's emit some smoke before! Your best bet is to buy new.. however they are quite expensive.. if you do end up finding another E101 second hand somewhere, chances are it'll be almost on the way out like your one too.
