installed
in
E36
cars
.
The
E36
cars
are
equipped
with
a
sophisticated
centralized
body
electric/electronics
plan
.
The
system
is
self-diagnostic
and
incorporates
many
functions
into
a
single
control
module
.
The
consolidation
of
several
systems
into
a
single
control
module
minimizes
power
requirements
and
the
incorporation
of
the
diagnostic
link
results
in
more
efficient
and
accurate
troubleshooting
.
Self-diagnostic
codes
are
accessible
electronically
through
the
data-link
connector
in
the
engine
compartment
.

Two
versions
of
central
body
electronics
are
used
depend-
ing
on
model
year
.
1992
and
1993
models
are
equipped
with
a
central
locking
module
(ZVM)
which
incorporates
control
of
the
following
sys-
tems
:
"Interiorlighting

protection
E36
cars
since
the
1994
model
year
are
equipped
with
ZKE
IV
.
This
is
an
electronic
comfort
and
convenience
system
that
includes
the
following
additional
features
:
"
One
touch
up/down
power
window

"
Power
window
and
sunroof
closure
from
driver
or
pas-
sengerdoor

"
Vehicle

or
unlocking

.
Other
features
of
the
system
are
discussed
in
515
Central
Locking
and
Anti-Theft
.
Electronic
Immobilization
System
Beginning
in
model
year
1994,
all
E36
vehicles
incorporate
adriveaway
protection
system
regardless
of
whether
the
vehi-
cle
is
equipped
with
a
BMW
Alarm
System
or
an
On-Board
computer
.
Two
types
of
factory
systems
were
installed,
de-
pending
on
vehicle
production
date
.
On
the
early
system
(model
year
1994
up
to
January
1995),
the
ignition
and
fuel
injection
functions
are
disabled
whenever
the
vehicle
is
locked
in
the
double
lock
mode
.
This
is
referred
lo
as
EWS
or
EWS
I
.
Beginning
in
January
1995,
the
driveaway
protection
sys-
tem
was
upgraded
to
a
more
sophisticated
system,
called
EWS
II
.
This
system
uses
a
wireless
communication
link
be-
tween
a
transponder
chip
in
the
ignition
keyand
the
ring
an-
tenna
surrounding
the
ignition
switch
.
The
EWS
II
control
module
blocksthe
starting
of
the
vehicle
unlessthe
correct
coded
ignition
key
is
used
.
