Ignition Ignitor Question?

I noticed my ignition ignitor module is just unscrewed and flouting under my TMIC. Would this make it fault, and possibly harm anything? I had to replace my ignition coil pack because it was arching. Does it need to be grounded to the car?

The ignitor has it's own ground wire in the plug, so it should be fine. I believe the bracket and metal backing is just intended to help keep is cool.

James is correct. There is no actual need to have it bolted to the car. It just is a mounting place and to keep the igniter cool, as they do get a little warm.
