The Opel Astra H ignition module, which has to be repaired not so rarely, is the most common problem in the operation of this car. The Opel Astra N z16xer ignition module, which often needs repair, is arranged as follows. This is a system that creates a spark on a candle, after which the machine starts to work. Without a spark, the car simply won't start. Device operation - accumulate electricity(you need quite a lot, up to 30000V) and transfer the available voltage through high voltage wire on a candle. Types of ignition module Opel Astra N z16xer repair it needs:
- separated. This is the type in which each candle gets its own coil;
- the Opel Astra H block ignition module, which will need to be repaired, since this particular type is implemented in the Opel Astra.
How to determine that an Opel Astra H ignition module needs to be repaired:
- engine tripping is observed, floating revolutions are noticeable;
- the on-board computer constantly writes that it would be necessary to check the engine;
- there is carbon deposits on the candles, and the spark is clearly weak, dull, bluish in color.
What events may lead to the need to repair the Opel Astra N ignition coil:
- gasoline of low quality;
- voltage fluctuation;
- closing of the second winding.
Breakdown of the body, due to which the Opel Astra H ignition module needs to be repaired. This is what most often happens with this car. If the need for repair arose due to a violation of the tightness of the case, then restoration can be carried out, but this is unlikely to help for a long time: it is likely that soon the Opel Astra N ignition coil will need to be repaired again. By contacting the Autopilot car service, you will receive a full-fledged diagnosis of damage from certified employees. The service team is working on the repair of the module Opel ignition Astra H qualitatively and professionally. To repair the Opel Astra H ignition module, branded spare parts and equipment are used.
Let's deal with one of the most unpleasant and common problems in the car Opel Astra H, ignition module malfunction. The car was produced in 2007, the engine stopped, an error popped up on the tidy check engine, the revs started to float. When you press the gas pedal, an unpleasant sound is heard.
Diagnostics showed a malfunction of the ignition module (coil). Price new coil ignition from Delphi in the region of 6 thousand rubles. Let's try to make repairs on our own, saving money. Open the hood, take out the plastic trim labeled Ecotec:
We unscrew the two mounting bolts and unhook the chip with wires:
We take out the ignition module, remove the caps one by one, be careful in them with small springs that are easy to lose, and will not work without them. A crack was noticed on the "second cylinder":
We need to make a groove in this place, you can do this with a regular sharp knife, or use a cutter. Before you start strobe, remove 2 of these "caps" that are inside:
Here's what happened after cutting:
We degrease the surface, for this you can use white spirit. Next, stir the glue-cold welding Poxipol (Poksipol) and apply to our problem area:
We are waiting for 30 minutes until our cold welding is completely dry. We collect in reverse order. We start the car, as a result, the problem completely disappeared, the engine started working smoothly, as before. Check Error Engine disappeared after some time.
How long does this repair take? Each one is different, this example the driver has already driven more than 30 thousand km. run, 2 years have passed, the coil is still working. Some, having carried out such a repair of the ignition module with their own hands, buy new part and carry it with them all the time, just in case.
Why is this happening? I can not say 100% exactly, but most likely because of the rubber tips. Their bottom dries from contact with heated candles, as a result, microcracks appear, a spark begins to break through them onto the body, “eating away” the shells in this place. To prevent the problem, I recommend buying and replacing rubber bands, they cost several hundred rubles.
In what cases such repair will not help? On this car, the coil did not burn out, but simply began to punch through the body. If the ignition module is burned out, nothing will help it, you need to buy a new part.

Opel Astra H ignition module repair: prerequisites
Although the ignition module has a relatively high reliability However, it does crash from time to time. Most often this happens due to the installation of parts that are not suitable in terms of parameters. For example, wires with too much or too little resistance can cause element failure.
Important! The ignition system of the Opel Astra N can indeed be considered reliable, but only if subjected to timely service in a car service.
Two main types of problems are common in the modules of this car: complete failure in operation, while there is no spark, or a partial deviation from normal operation when the spark is still present. The first situation can be solved relatively quickly, sometimes even just replacing the candles is enough. The situation is more complicated in the second case, when the car can normally work on Idling, and with increasing load, defects appear much more seriously.
If there are problems, obvious problems, it is necessary to check the coil in the module as soon as possible. It is she who gives energy for the formation of a spark, which ignites the fuel.
If desired, you can put the coil in good condition. However, experts consider this a temporary measure, and if there are breakdowns in its case, it is still necessary to completely replace the ignition module. It is extremely useful to periodically check the coil for functionality, since its breakdown negatively affects the operation of the entire car.
The fact that it is the ignition module that is faulty is indicated by the appearance of the following symptoms:
There are several reasons why the module fails:
- winding short circuit;
- fuel Low quality;
- voltage fluctuations.

Is it actually possible to repair? The Opel Astra H ignition module is common problem for owners this car. You can often find discussions and videos about the malfunction of this node. It is obvious that most of those who have encountered a problem have thought about the possibility of restoring the spare part. As a rule, repairs are cheaper. We will understand the intricacies of the node and consider the option of returning the operability of the spare part.
The ignition module is a system that gives off the electrical charge necessary for the appearance of a spark on a candle. The operation of any internal combustion engine without this module is impossible.
The part collects electric current in the required amount (up to 30,000 V) and transmits voltage to the spark plugs through high voltage wires. Devices are:
- separate - a separate coil is supplied to each spark plug;
- block - the design (one module) is used immediately for a number of cylinders (this is exactly the option in the Opel Astra H).
Many people think that the module and the ignition coil are one and the same. This is partly true, because the ignition module is a consequence of the coil. However, the coil integrated for more early cars as the main node. Now, the coil is part of the design of the part.
The module is controlled by sensors and electronic systems. Information from sensors ICE operation enters a special controller, which controls the ignition system.
Node malfunction symptoms
Typical and obvious symptoms for which you should think about replacing or repairing the ignition module on the Opel Astra H are:
- Floating speed and "triple" of the engine.
- Flashing on dashboard indicator "Check Engine".
- Burn on spark plugs. Appears from weak spark (insufficient voltage) on a candle. The spark itself in this case should be a dull, bluish color.

The reasons for the failure of the spare part can be:
- Poor quality fuel.
- Any voltage fluctuation up / down can damage the module.
- Closing the second winding. It is revealed by checking the resistance between connectors 1 and 4, as well as 2 and 3 of the module. Deviation of readings from 5.5–5.6 KΩ is the reason for the short circuit.
most common cause, according to which the module fails on the Astra H is a violation of the integrity and tightness of its case. In other words, a case breakdown occurs and a through gap (hole) is formed in it. In this case, restoration of the tightness of the module is required, but you need to understand that this is a temporary measure and in the future the part will still have to be replaced.
Removing the device
To dismantle the block, you must:
- Open the car hood.
- Disconnect the terminals from the battery.
- Remove the plug cover (with Ecotec inscription).
- In the exposed space, on the right, there are contacts. They come off with a flat head screwdriver.
- We unscrew the two bolts fixing the module (TORX 40).
- We remove the device with a sharp but gentle movement in the "up" direction.
Now you can insert new node and assemble everything in the reverse order or repair the faulty one yourself.
Repair of the ignition module Opel Astra H
In order to repair and restore the tightness of the spare part housing, you need to:
- Find a breakdown on the part body and carefully inspect it.
- Clean and clean the hole from soot with a drill machine or scalpel.
- Drill deeply into the breakdown area (preferably down to the metal) closer to the candle.
- Clean up the breakout area.
- Pour the sample with two-component cold welding (for example, Poxipol); epoxy will also work.
The other day, returning from a trip to the garage, the car suddenly got feverish, the check caught fire, well, I think everyone has arrived! idling the car shook, the speed swam a lot, the gear knob shook like in a Zhiguli and the check was on. I turned off the ignition, turned it on and started it after a short time, the car was in a fever, the check was on, riding a rope to the garage was not in my plans and I decided to get there on its own, the device started off sluggishly and I drove to the garage on my own. Near the garage, I turned off the car, opened the garage, started the engine, it worked as if nothing had happened, but the check was on. I decided to do the engine diagnostics myself, which gave four errors and one of them pointed to the module. I drove the device into a stall, knowing that the ignition module sore spot in Astrakh, I decided to remove it and take it home to inspect the presence of a breakdown, I also decided to replace the candles, since I had not changed them since buying a car and removed the brand from the battery. Having removed the rubber tips from the module at home, I found that a piece had broken off from the module on the fourth cylinder, and I didn’t see about the fights, I found an article on the Internet about repairing the module, I decided to fix it. Spare parts for Astra are almost everything on order and wait a few days (I think it’s a big minus) I ordered a module on Existe and went and bought new candles. on the Internet (errors that the diagnostic itself showed 060130,059761,001463,030401) a whole bunch (as in the advertisement "take, take, take in bulk"))) probably the car went crazy from the breakdown! I don’t feel comfortable, what if the problem is something else? Having healed the module and taking new candles, I wandered into the garage, having installed everything, I start the car, it didn’t start up and it became quieter, but the check is on, what should I do, go to throw off the error? I remembered that someone I wrote on the Internet that after several windings the error might disappear by itself, I decided to ride it, see what would happen next. Having driven the car out of the garage, I turned it off a couple of times and started it up and a miracle happened, the check disappeared, the check did not light up for a ride on it for two days! Next week a new one will come module, I’ll install it, and leave the old one in reserve, you never know. I think that the module was damaged by the crooked paws of the service men, it could hardly burst, their attitude towards their work leaves much to be desired, somehow I don’t particularly trust them and I try to do everything myself, I didn’t have time to buy a major garage before the crisis, and sometimes there aren’t enough pits! Once I went to them to change the oil, they screwed up half a centimeter above the maximum, then I had to pump it out myself with a syringe through the dipstick. I attach a photo of the cured module below. Good luck on the road!
