The ECM does. The module is only a pickup and a signal conditioner.
There is a tan wire with a black stripe that disables timing advance when disconnected, so maybe that's whats going on. Its near the realay center on the firewall.
The PGM-FI unit is located under carpet at the passenger side. It covered by frame. Good luck. The ignition control module of any late model Honda/Acura product is always the PGMFI computer, which controls all fuel delivery and ignition timing coordination. Now, if you have a problem, that is ignition related, first replace the plugs, then the wires, and shortly after the ign coil itself. That's how you approach a Honda ign prob.
There is a problem in the distributor. Either the pickup coil or the ignition module are defective. It may be cheaper to purchase a remanufactured distributor.
your timing is not adjustable. the pcm controls the timing. your dis. is index.
Most likely- bad ignition module inside the distributor. Easier to change the whole distributor and reset the ign. timing, but costlier than digging out the ignition module to replace it. May also be the ignition coil, a very common problem, but will usually show burnt contact when you remove the dist. cap. Note: a new coil usually comes with a rebuilt distributor. You may need a casting number off of the old distributor for the parts guy.
Ingnition switch, relays/fuses, wires. Depending on year ecm(engine control module) 1-12 coil packs, or distributor and spark plug wires and spark plugs. Can have knock sensors, which adjust timing to compensate of fuel/atmospheric conditions.
The "brain" of the ignition system, the Ignition control module controls the ignition timing and strength, as directed by the main computer. It can be located in a variety of places, but it can normally be found underneath the hood.

Ignition Timing Advancers are mechanical 'bolt-on' pieces to advance the ignition timing of the engine to a specific degree of timing advance. The majority of its application for these parts are for motorcycles or on racing applications.

The ignition timing on your vehicle is not adjustable. It is set according to driving conditions by the Powertrain Control Module, or PCM. There should be a sticker under the hood with this information.
There are none. Ignition timing is not adjustable. Ignition timing and spark advance are handled by the engine controller module and the ignition control module, with inputs from various sensors. The engine controller is located by the passenger kick panel. The ignition controller is the thing the ciol pack mount on...it runs about $110 new. The ignition controller is often the cause of rough running, or idle problems as the spark advance function tends to crap out on this model of DIS ignition. Producing a constant error code, and therefore a constant check engine light.
it could be that the timing is a little off check the timing with a timing light, it could also be the ignition module which is very difficult to test on your own you can take the module to advance auto parts and they can test it for you!
Ignition system is controlled by Vehicle Control Module (VCM). The VCM monitors the information from various engine sensors, computes the desired spark timing and controls the dwell and firing of the ignition coil via an (IC) line to the ignition control module. Hope this helps.
Controls the ignition timing.
cam timing will not change ignition timing i would try 8 or 10 degees advance at idle with the vacuum advance disconnected.
The ignition timing is controled by the PCM (computer), which is located below the master cylender inside the dash panel. There is no separate ignition module.
ignition timing is controlled by the electronic control module or the "brain" on distributorless engines. Reysher
