Hi, I am looking for an ignition control unit for my 328 Mondial. They are like hens teeth. Anybody got any ideas or even someone that can repair them. Thanks
The Ferrari part No. is 127422 or Magneti Marelli Part No. MED806A. They are the same thing. Maybe an electronics engineer who can fix circuit boards. All 328's use the same part. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. thanks Dennis
Maybe I misunderstand. Are you saying the ignition module for the 3.2 is the same as the 3.4? You may want to check out this website. http://www.riboparts.com/products.asp?changeInfo=Our%20Products&changeClass=Ignition%20Modules The BM 346 cross references to the 3.4t (at least with 2.7 Motronic). If this is not a match for the 3.2, you might find something that is. Regards, Jerry
That's what i thought. But these ignition control modules are not made just for Ferrari. The trick is finding the proper cross reference. That is what took me time searching and cross referencing parts on the interest. Regards, Jerry
Mike replaced/cleaned one.. post 134 on this page http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/mondial/364375-rough-idle-loss-power-backfire-7.html
Is this it? New Ignition Coil Module for Ferrari Testarossa TR 328 Mondial 3 2 and 412 | eBay Look for hens in a hen house; looking in the wrong place? Regards, Jerry
I'm almost sure they are the same of a 328. Here is mine of a 3.2 '87 Image Unavailable, Please Login
Again, that is the transistor module, not the ignition control unit. If he is using correct terminology it is #23. He even gave us a part number. http://www.ricambiamerica.com/parts_catalogs.php?M=FE&P=&V=diag&I=2420
Thanks. So he is looking for the main computer control unit? Pretty rare for those to go bad. I had that symptom, but we traced it down to a bad "transistor" module (referred to as power module on my car, table 8 #19). Regards, Jerry
Gentlemen, Sorry about the delay in response but I think we are on different time lines. I am in Sydney and have just woke up to a beautiful Tuesday morning. Rifledriver you are correct, but unfortunately Ricambi do not have the part in stock. I have been looking now for approximately 4 months and I am pissed simply because I didnt get to drive my car all summer. I have a 12 year old and he is especially not impressed along with his mates, but i digress. Just to clarify this part is used in all 328's Mondials, GTS's etc...The previous models I think use two units to do the same job. Again the 348's are different also. Someone further back mentioned something about fixing it after finding a transistor faulty, I could use that contact maybe they know something. And Jerry I will also contact that Ebay distributor. they may have something also. The cross referencing I havnt thought of. Do you think the same part can be used on a different vehicle? I would be surprised but will not discount it. Thanks again and if anyone has a lead I'd love it.
Your best bet is to try and find a used one. I would try T Rutlands, GT Car parts and these guys. Tom Vail's All Ferrari Parts, Ferrari Spares, Vintage Parts The prior owner had all manner of unusual inventory. They were not especially failure prone and many cars have been parted out so there has to be one somewhere.
Or if you need to send it out... From another thread (Injection ECU, but they may do the ignition as well):
I suppose it can't hurt but out of all the ECU's I have sent them they are batting exactly zero. I suspect most of the units they receive are not bad to start with.
I'm with Brian, maybe the injection module isn't the problem? For example: https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/mondial/297321-anyone-florida-328-mondial-3-2-med806a-help-needed.html
Yes have already don that. That is how we confirmed the problem. And yes it is unusul. That is probably why all mechanics and repairers are finding it difficult
Yeah, we have checked it against another car. That is how we isolated the problem. So it goes on. Waiting for some replies on your leads. Will keep you posted
I did find a couple of vague references to Lancia using the same control unit. I could not determine which model, but I would assume a V8 of similar size and vintage (mid to late 1980's). Wasn't there a V8 Lancia Thema 8.32 and imported into Canada? Regards, Jerry
