boosted280 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Well I took the zx out driving this past weekend and while I was driving it turned off. I was not driving it hard at all. Now when I try to start it when it sounds like it is about to crank it makes a pfft sound loses most power and starts trying to crank again. Any ideas?

JMortensen Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Ignition module is my first guess. Usually the module will work again after the car cools off, then it will run fine until hot, and then die again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosted280 Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 No it wont start at all. Not even after cooling off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctc Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Have you downloaded the Factory Service Manual? There is a complete troubleshooting guide in it that might give you a place to start. Search the Xenon S130 site for the FSM.

JMortensen Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Still could be ign module. Sometimes they just fail altogether, out of the blue, no warning. The FSM is a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosted280 Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 Is there a way to test the ign module? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I believe the FSM has a test procedure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosted280 Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 Thanks for the help guys. It turns out that the screw came out of the back of the rotor in the dizzy. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
