car randomly turns off and wont start
i am throwing a cel its 15 for the ignition output signal. i havent been able to drive my car in days because everytime i am able to turn it on it runs for about 5-8 mins and then turns off on its own and then it just cranks over and doesnt start but after i leave it for 2 hours it will start again and do the same thing. any idea whats wrong?
this is for a code 15, ignition output signal, from the helms manual.
disconnect 2p connector from dizzy, with igntion switch turned to on
measure voltage between the black/yellow(+) and body ground.
is there battery voltage? yes? continue...no? fix open in blk/yel and ingition switch
continued.
reconnect 2p connector, turn ignition switch to on.
test voltage between A21 (+) and A22 (+) with A26(-) on the ECU
is there 10v? yes? substitute known good ecu and retest....no? replace ignitor unit or repair short between yel/grn wire and ecu A21 or A22.
note: if there is a short the ignitor may be damaged
now my best guess, since the ignitor unit is notorious for going bad in these things, i would go ahead and source one out and replace it
