The ignition control module is inside the Powertrain Control Module. What is the problem you are having that has caused you to want the Ignition Module replaced or repaired?

the car has no spark...so that was the next choice cause both coil packs aren't producing any spark

HAve you checked all the fuses with a test light? Be sure to look under the hood and under the dash.

havent checked the fuses but will, I wont be working on the car till this coming weekend. the control module is in the powertrain module so that comes apart to put the new control module in? kinda crazy design. The autopart store showed me the part and I brought the powertrain module in but they never said it was inside it.

You do not take the PCM apart. It is a one piece solid state design. If you take it apart, the PCM warranty will be voided. You just replace the entire computer.

but why does the autopart store sell the coontrol module by itself? they want about $190.00 for it. It looks like a flat piece that has about 10-12 connectors on the plug itself. but not visible anywhere on the vehicle

Does the module look like this??
If so go here. http://www.megamanual.com/ms2/EDIS.htm Just under the first graph, it will tell you the most likely place it is located.

Yes put the grease on it. On the Crown Victorias, the module is on the drivers side fender under the hood hinge area. It may be close to that place.

The ignition control module is in the Powertrain Control Module. The EDIS Module is mounted separately. I searched some more and found you more than likely have a Constant Control Relay Module. It is located on top of the radiator close to the center of the car. This controls the spark to your vehicle. Does the module you purchased look like this?? If it does it is the CCRM.
