Standard Ignition LX-380 Ignition Control Module

Ignition Control Module for Distributor Systems

Standard Ignition LX-380 is an ignition control module for distributor-mounted applications that need stable coil triggering and reliable spark control. It is built for 12-volt systems and is compatible with select 1994-1997 Chevrolet, GMC, Honda, and Isuzu vehicles, including Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet S10, GMC Jimmy, GMC Sonoma, Honda Passport, and Isuzu Rodeo applications.

Key Features

• Bolt-on attachment method for inside-distributor mounting
• 12-volt ignition control module with 1 female connector
• 4 male blade terminals for the specified application
• Double wire bonds for stronger electrical connections and improved durability
• Copper slug heat sinks to help move heat away from the module
• High-temperature polymer housing to reduce moisture intrusion and vibration damage
• Durability tested through 500 thermal cycles from -40C to +125C

Detailed Description

The Standard Ignition LX-380 ignition control module is engineered for distributor-mounted ignition systems where consistent coil control is critical. It is designed to respond quickly to weak crankshaft position sensor signals and begin energizing the coils immediately, which supports easier cold-weather starting. For drivers servicing a 1995 Chevrolet Blazer, 1995 Chevrolet S10, 1994-1995 GMC Jimmy, or 1995 GMC Sonoma, this module addresses common ignition control failures with a design focused on heat management, vibration resistance, and electrical stability. It also fits 1996-1997 Isuzu Rodeo and 1996 Honda Passport models manufactured from November 1995.

This part cross-references Standard Ignition LX-380 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• No-start or hard-start conditions related to ignition module failure
• Intermittent spark loss in distributor-based ignition systems
• Poor cold-weather starting caused by delayed coil energizing
• Heat-related ignition control breakdown
• Vibration-related electrical connection issues inside the distributor

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the connector style, terminal count, and inside-distributor mounting location before installation. This module uses a bolt-on attachment method and is specified for 12-volt systems with a female connector and male blade terminals. Confirm vehicle fitment carefully for 1996 Honda Passport models, since coverage applies only to units manufactured from November 1995. For 1995 Chevrolet Blazer, 1995 Chevrolet S10, 1994-1995 GMC Jimmy, and 1995 GMC Sonoma applications, confirm the 4-pin configuration matches the original part.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition builds this module with double wire bonds, copper slug heat sinks, and a high-temperature polymer housing to improve electrical reliability and thermal control. It is durability tested across 500 thermal cycles from -40C to +125C to validate performance in demanding ignition environments.
