Car won't start. At auto shop the diagnostics showed the problem was the Ig. control Module, but their computer could not locate where it was! We took apart the distributor but could not find it to fix it.

    When I work on Toyota Distributors, I replace the entire distributor, because when one component fails the others are soon to follow, like the 2 pick-up coils etc. The ignition coil is a very common failure as well, which is also typically in the distributor on the 4 cylinder. By the time you price out the Ignition Module, Coil etc, it is cheaper to just buy a re-manufactured distributor.
