What is that? when I leave my key in the 'on' position but the car not started, it gets so hot you cant touch it.

Sorry to start a new post but no one's posted in the previous posts in a while so I figured a new one would get this noticed faster!

I did a search on ICM's and all I got was threads on HEI mods.

is that a stock part? I have never seen one of those on an mx-3!

i have no freakin clue! the guys where i work are heavy duty mechanics and they figure its an external ignition module. I'm not getting any spark and if that is an external ICM, the fact it's getting so hot could possibly be why im not getting spark?

I think ive seen it in other cars. obd2? i dont know what it does.

i have it on mine and all the other mx-3s ive seen at junkyard around here ..im pretty sure its the DRL Module ,Daytime Running Lights, and i think its only in canada.

ya ive got one of those aswell. on my brothers civic, it looks almost exactly the same but it says right on the part: "it is normal for this part to get extremely hot during use"

I believe you, still makes me laugh though....

Kinda like a caution fire is hot lable written on a pack of matches

i found a site once where it had a bunch of stupid labels that people put on products like the one i saw once. it went something like this: on the bottom of a pie box it said do not turn this box upside down.

Its the continuum transfunctioner

The continuum transfunctioner is a very mysterious and powerful device and it's mystery is only exceeded by it's power.

Yup. Mine doesn't get that warm though, but it's bolted down pretty nice.

You american guys would of never seen one because it's the Daytime Runing Lights module.

you do realize that in you bio your location says you live in america right?

He's in Canada.

We've had requirements since 1991 that the vehicle have marker lights or headlights illuminate while driving. The Americans don't have the same legislation.
