Standard Ignition LX-241 Ignition Control Module

Ignition Control Module for Ford Applications

Standard Ignition LX-241 is a 12-volt ignition control module built for distributor-mounted applications. It is engineered for dependable coil control, stable operation in vibration-prone environments, and improved cold-start response in Ford, Mercury, Lincoln, and Mazda vehicles.

Key Features

• 12-volt ignition control module with female connector and male blade terminals
• Distributor mounting location for direct ignition system service
• Double wire bonds for stronger electrical connections and longer service life
• Copper slug heat sinks to improve heat dissipation
• High-temperature polymer housing to reduce moisture intrusion and vibration damage
• Responds to weak crankshaft position sensor signals for quicker coil energizing in cold weather
• Durability tested through 500 thermal cycles from -40C to +125C

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition LX-241 is designed for vehicles that use a distributor-mounted ignition control module and a 6-terminal blade connection. It is a direct-fit service part for many Ford truck and van applications, including 1992-1997 Ford F-150, 1992-1997 Ford F-250, and 1992-1996 Ford F-350, along with select Ford Mustang, Ranger, Taurus, Thunderbird, Aerostar, Bronco, Econoline, Mercury Cougar, Mercury Sable, Lincoln Continental, and Mazda B3000 and MX-6 models. This part number, LX-241, is built to address common ignition failures while maintaining consistent coil control under heat, vibration, and moisture exposure.

This part cross-references Delphi DS10056 and Carlson 7074 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Hard starting in cold weather
• Intermittent spark or no-start conditions
• Ignition failure caused by heat-related module damage
• Misfire concerns tied to weak ignition control signals
• Vibration-related electrical connection issues

Installation Notes and Tips

• Fits 1992-1997 Ford F-150, remote mounted module and w/ heat sink applications.
• Fits 1992-1997 Ford F-250, including module on fender applications.
• Fits 1994-1995 Ford Mustang and 1991-1995 Ford Ranger with distributor-mounted ignition service needs.
• Verify connector style, terminal count, and mounting location before installation.
• Inspect the crankshaft position sensor, wiring, and distributor-related components during diagnosis to avoid repeat failure.
