i dont beleave they had the emc(electronic modual control) on the 03' 600. i couldnt find one when i looked on the pn# break down. i would start looking at the wires to see if any melted? maybe thats what you smelled. just an idear.

can it be heat activated, cause it tried starting it and it ran for a while then i turned it off, after i turned it off i tried to turn it on again but no spark, so maybe it has to do with temp? all the help is greatly appreciated.
