    Replacing the Ignition Control Module (ICM) should solve the problem, provided the Check Engine Light comes on and goes out after 2 seconds when the ignition switch is turned to ON (Position II):

    As the link explains, the ICM is located inside the distributor. After removing the rotor and leak cover, the ICM is inside (mounted on a heat sink).

    $49.99 at AutoZone (JA179).

    1991 Honda accord starting problems
    I have replaced, coil, rotary button, ICM. Still won't start.
    I did the K test with key in number two position and electrical connection disconnected from MAP. I got a low reading of a fraction of a volt. Which indicates according to to K test that the EMC is bad. I can't seem to find the EMC with 3-10mm bolts & one nut holding cover. I find a large cover about 8 X 12 with 4-10 mm nuts holding cover. Is that it? ( this is on passenger side, front seat, in front of seat, under carpet)
