Instead, the ignition system relies on individual ignition coils for each cylinder. The ignition control module (ICM) sends a signal to the appropriate coil to fire the spark plug at the correct time.
Here's where you would find the ignition coils on a 2000 Impala:
* V6 engine: The coils are located on top of the spark plugs, typically with one coil per cylinder.
* V8 engine: The coils are usually found in a bank near the front of the engine, with two coils per cylinder.
It's important to consult your car's repair manual or a reliable online source for specific details about your Impala's engine setup and coil locations.
