The Pontiac Firebird Ignition Control Module ensures that with every turn of the key, spark timing is achieved for better combustion and good acceleration. The coil is an electric device that acts like an electronic switch for the coil's primary circuit. In systems that use a distributor, signals from a distributor pickup are sent to the Ignition Control Module. In later distributorless systems, this is a crankshaft sensor. The Ignition Control Module makes and breaks current flow very rapidly so that secondary voltage can be sent to the plugs. The electronic distributor housed the early units of the classic Firebird. These units were compatible with all centrifugal and vacuum advance hardware. They required a timing light to set the base timing. Subsequently, when Pontiac applied distributorless architectures to the final generations of the Firebird, the Ignition Control Module started splitting tasks with an engine computer, which selected both initial timing and advance via sensor readings, decreasing manual setting and enhancing efficiency. Any style of a failed Ignition Control Module will leave the coil without switching, meaning it will have no spark and will not start. This little device is critical to every Pontiac enthusiast.
