Go to the wreckers car junk yard and see if you can find another module or buy a new one but yes it sounds faulty... modules are non-serviceable so just get another... Run a code reader just to make sure that it is that module thats faulty
Where is the white smoke coming from? Under hood? Out tail pipe? If excessive white smoke from tail pipe, suspect a head gasket failure which in turn will fill the cooling system with exhaust pressure forcing the coolant to come out of the reservoir and resulting in an overheating problem
Hi Shelley, you mean the engine turns over but won't start ? It's missing one of three things Spark , Fuel or compression ! The last time it ran , did it run ok or not good ? No blue smoke coming out the tail pipe or smoke coming from under the hood ? Were there any lights lit on the dash , check engine , oil light...etc.. How low was the oil ? If the oil had been very low an you where driving it you could have fried the engine ! Me ,if this car came to my shop I'd pull a plug wire an see if it had spark an if it did I put a fuel presser gauge on an check for fuel ! If it had fuel I'd check compression ! Most usually if low oil were the problem the engine would seas up an would not turn at all. No Start Diagnostic Basics EricTheCarGuy You can watch this to see what is involved in finding out the problem !
This link will help with the security light. Read the whole page carefully. The info is good and depending on your year, there might be a solution for you. http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.yolasite.com/
As far as the blue smoke, thats normally burning oil. You might have multiple problems. Id suggest reposting about the smoke. The link should help you with the security.
Black smoke indicates a fuel problem, if your o2 sensor goes out frequently you may need need to adjust the air/mixer mixture. this can be done on a diagnostic machine, you can buy the portable ones but I find that the bigger versions are easier and more reliable. Dealers are the best choice but as usual it will cost you.
It's just condensation. Water will also drip from the pipe.
The colder it is, the worse the 'smoke' will be. I was in Vernal, Utah
earlier this week, drove through -18*F weather, my truck never quit
blowing white smoke.
