not sure --but it could be your --digital enhancement converter module----what it does is it converts square waves into sine wave so you dont get any radio interference

It's just that i havent been able to start my car since the summer. It's a electronic problem. It's not the timing, distributor, wires, Ecu, module, I checked everything, it's not the fuel system. It cranks but dont start. Thats y i'm askin if it's a fuse or a relay. But I checked all of the fuse box and thats the only one thats left. And one of the mechanics said that fuse box controls the ecu which sends the signal to the car to start.

Here's the so called "secret" fuse box he's talkin about. No secret though, I knew mine was there. It's sorta like a junction box. I know the ignition wires plug into it fron the ignition switch, then come out of it and go to the fuse box in the engine bay. (That's only part of what plugs into it)

Have you checked to see if it's getting fuel or spark to each cylinder?
