Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum, so thank you all for participating.
I'm working on a 2004 Hyster S50XM, propane fuel, Mazda 2.0
The forklift intermittently does not start. When this happens, I have no power to the positive side of the coil. As I understand it, and correct me if I'm wrong, the pick-up coil triggers the module, which inputs to the ECM, which turns on power to the coil after the engine has cranked long enough to get the propane moving.
Now I've been reading about delay modules, seemingly to prevent starter nose cone breakage, and am questioning where it is installed, if it isn't what is labeled "emission control", then it must be in a secret squirrel location.
When all is working, there is about a 2 second delay between cranking initialization and power to the coil, then away she goes.

Fact of the week
At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
