htf do you fix code 15
I just put a crx si fuel injection swap into my 91 4 door lx the car ran fine for a week and than out of the blue it would turn on and when I give it gas it would die. It is throwing a code 15 and I cant figure out how to fix it. Please help I really need a car.

Just save yourself alot of headache and buy a new distributor, my car had the error code 15 problem from hell. Went to local picknpull got a distributor never had any problems after.

The code of death.
Get a new dizzy. Try a known good ecu first if you can though. Seen a 15 fixed one time by swapping ecu's. All other times it's been the dizzy.

I love Code 15, it is a great code to have! Just Kidding. Code 15 refers to the Ignition Control Module which sits inside the distributor (Dizzy) on these cars. Symptoms include, stalling at a stop lights or signs, sluggish, feels like it wants to die, feels like no fuel is getting to the injectors, will die and then fire right back up or might take a minute or 2, try and give it gas and the engine cuts out. If this happens to you replace the ICM (ignitor), before you start throwing parts at the car, ECU's, Fuel Pump, Main Relay. The problem is intermitent, it took me 2 weeks with a 91 Honda Civic to figure it out. Learn from my pain.
