Is it a fairly common occurence on Impalas or 3.8 L engines with 250 000KM
When it comes to electronics ...it could be a number of things?
Any ideas on other causes or where to get part....scrap yard ?

Electronic gremlins are hard to diagnose without proper tools/knowledge... In general, those parts are easy to change, but if the new part you buy doesn't do the trick, it's non returnable... Also, I really wouldn't get an electronic part from a scrap yard ( chances are the part is ready to go out soon too ). If you want, I can call Partex and ask how much they charge. Let me know.
