Ignition Control Module for GM Compact Cars

Standard Ignition LX-366 is a 12-volt ignition control module built for direct replacement on select Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Buick applications. It is engineered for stable coil control, dependable starting, and consistent ignition performance in demanding underhood conditions.

Key Features

• Bolt-on external mounting with 2 female connectors
• 12-volt ignition control module with 8 and 3 blade terminals
• Double wire bonds for stronger electrical connections and improved durability
• Copper slug heat sinks to improve heat dissipation
• High-temperature polymer housing to reduce moisture intrusion and vibration damage
• Thermal-cycle tested from -40C to +125C for durability validation

Detailed Product Overview

The Standard Ignition LX-366 is designed for vehicles that need reliable ignition module control under heat, vibration, and cold-start conditions. It responds to weak crankshaft position sensor signals and begins energizing the coils quickly, which supports easier starting in cold weather. This part number, LX-366, is a direct-fit style replacement for applications including 1995-2002 Chevrolet Cavalier, 1995-2002 Pontiac Sunfire, 1999-2001 Oldsmobile Alero, 1993-2001 Pontiac Grand Am, 1997-1999 Chevrolet Malibu, 1993-1998 Buick Skylark, and 1993-1998 Oldsmobile Achieva.

This part cross-references Delphi GN10096 and Carlson 7142 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• No-start or hard-start conditions related to ignition module failure
• Intermittent misfire caused by unstable coil triggering
• Stalling or loss of spark from heat-related module breakdown
• Starting issues in cold weather when crankshaft signal response is delayed
• Ignition performance problems caused by vibration or moisture intrusion

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and mounting location before installation. The LX-366 uses an external bolt-on design with female connectors and blade terminals, so matching the original connector layout is important for proper fitment. Confirm vehicle application by year, make, and model before replacing the module on Chevrolet Cavalier, Pontiac Sunfire, Oldsmobile Alero, Pontiac Grand Am, Chevrolet Malibu, Buick Skylark, or Oldsmobile Achieva.
