before the new ICM,would the car not start?
would it crank but not fire?
would the car shut off while driving?
would it start some day's ,and not some other's?

if so,it could be the PIP inside the dizzy.
1.you could replace the PIP,but you would need to press off the drive gear to disassemble the dizzy and replace it.
2.get a reman dizzy from the parts store.but,sometimes the PIP is not replace when the rebuild it.only the parts that are obviously bad.

(but,getting the codes would really help to narrow down problem.)

also, to :SNSign:

I'm inclined to go with the stator (PIP) being the cause but my experience would indicate that that does not trigger a code. The OP post about the CEL would seemingly indicate that a fault code my be available.

Since you have a CEL, start by pulling codes. If it's a PIP failure, you should see code 211, and that would definitely cause a no-start condition.
