Default Code 20- Electrical Load Detector?

This is drivin me crazy. I am getting no spark, I even tried a friend's working dizzy. All grounds are perfect. I am getting cel code 20, electrical load detector. Would this cel code stop me from getting spark? The ELD itself is getting 4.45 V.

The Eld itself shouldn't prevent u from starting ur car. The culprit lies elsewhere. If u already tried another dizzy, try a diff ecu/spark plugs and spark plug wires. Also u sure ur not getting spark? What method are u using to see if u have spark?

That code will not prevent your car from starting and running.

How did you get that Voltage for the ELD?

It is a unit that is built into the fuse box.

If you are not getting spark, and you already replaced the cap, sounds like the ignitor is bad.
