Troubleshooting Assistance Please...

Most box auto parts stores carry the modules and they are real inexpensive. I carry a spare one in my truck just incase.

Most of the time when they go they give no warning.

My HEI came from Skip White. I bought a new module for $22.00 got them at NAPA. All what was needed....Thanks.

Thanks good idea. I plan on putting in a MSD setup, if not I will definitely buy a spare for my tool box. Thanks

I didn't notice the rotor starting to arc, however I will take a closer look at it to be for sure. I was concentrating on the removing the module so I could have over looked it. Thanks for tip.
