Lnition switch
4 The positive (+) power supply to the ignition coils comes to
the ignition switch via an unloader relay. When the ignition
switch is turned on, the relay closes, to provide voltage to the
ignition coils. The coils are then actuated at the negative side
by the engine control module.
NOTE-
Schematic diagrams shown are for illustrative purposes only.
See ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams for engine manage-
ment specific wiring information.
WARNING- Do not touch or disconnect any cables from the coils while
the engine is running or being cranked by the starter:
The ignition system produces high voltages that can be
fatal. Avoid contact with exposed terminals. Use ex-
treme caution when
working on a car with the ignition
switched on or the engine running.
* Connect and disconnect the DME system wiring and
test equipment leads only when the ignition is
OFF
Before operating the starter without starting the engine
(for example when
making a compression test), always
disable the ignition.
4 Knock sensors (arrows) monitor the combustion chamber for
engine-damaging knock. Six-cylinder models (shown) use
two sensors with each sensor monitoring three cylinders.
V-
8 models use four sensors, each monitoring two cylinders. If
engine
knock is detected, the ignition point is retarded by the
ECM.
I Ignition advance Ignition timing is electronically mapped and not adjustable.
The ECM uses engine load, engine speed, coolant tempera-
ture, knock detection, and intake air temperature as the basic
inputs for timing control.
A three dimensional map similar to
the one shown is digitally stored in the ECM.
- The initial ignition point is determined by the crankshaft
speed sensor during cranking. Once the engine is running.
timing is continually adjusted based on operating conditions.

STARTER
Starter troubleshooting
Typical starter wiring terminal identification is shown. Large
wire at terminal
30 (not shown in photo) is direct battery volt-
age. Smaller wire at terminal
50 operates starter solenoid via
ignition switch.
If starter turns engine slowly when ignition is in start position:
Check battery state of charge.
Inspect starter wires, terminals, and ground
connectlons
for good contact. In particular, make sure ground connec-
tions between battery, body and
englne are completely
clean and tight.
If no faults are found, starter may be faulty and should be
replaced.
- If starter fails to operate, check EWS (drive-away protection
system). Try another ignition key.
If no faults can be found,
have the EWS system checked using
BMW scan tool equip-
ment.
Checkclutch pedal operated
starter lock-out switch or gear
position switch (automatic).
NOTE-
* A factory-installed drive-away protection system, also re-
ferred to as
EWS, is used on E39 cars. This system pre-
vents operation of the starter if a specially coded ignition
key is not used.
On cars with automatic transmission, the transmission
gear position switch signals
EWS to prevent the engine
from starting in gear positions other than PARK or NEU-
TRAL.
On cars with manual transmissions, a starter immobiliza-
tion switch
at the clutch pedal is used to prevent the starter
from operating unless the clutch pedal is pushed fully to
the floor.

Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor,
testing and replacing
R
1 -4 The ECT sensor is located below cylinder 1 intake port
The ECT sensor is a dual temperature sensor. One circuit
provides coolant temperature information to the ECM while
the other circuit provides coolant temperature information to
the instrument cluster.
The ECM determines the correct ignition timing and
airlfuel
mixture required for the engine by monitoring an applied volt-
age
(5 vdc) to the sensor. The voltage drop across the sensor
varies as the coolant temperature (sensor resistance) chang-
es.
NOTE-
The ECT sensor is an NTC (negative temperature coeffi-
cient) type sensor. in other words, as the temperature rises,
resistance through the sensor decreases.
If the ETC sensor input is faulty or non-plausible, the MIL is il-
luminated when
OED II fault criteria are exceeded. The ECM
assumes asubstitute value
(80°C1 176°F) to maintainengine
operation. The ignition timing is set to a
conse~ativelsafe ba-
sic setting.
- Check ECT sensor resistance using a multimeter at sensor
terminals.
-
WARNING -
Due to risk of personal injury, be sure the engine is cold be-
fore disconnecting or reconnecting ECT sensor.

4 The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor (arrow) signal is
used by the ECM to monitor intake air temperature for fuel
and
igntion adaptation. The sensor is .ocared in rne 'ntane
man:lold behind the throttle housng.
The ECM monitors an applied voltage (5 vdc) to the sensor
The voltage drop across the sensor varies as the intake air
temperature (sensor resistance) changes.
NOJE-
The IATsensor is an NTC (negative temperature coefficient)
type sensor. In other words, as the temperature rises, resis-
tance through the sensor decreases.
If the IAT sensor input is implausible, a
fault code is set.The
MIL is illuminated when OED II fault criteria are exceeded.
The ECM then operates the engine using only the engine
coolant temperature (ECT) sensor input.
The intake air temperature sensor can be tested using a
mul-
timeter across its terminals:

4 The ECT sensor is located below cylinder 6 intake port at the
rear of the engine (1).
The ECT sensor is a dual temperature sensor. One circuit
provides coolant temperature information to the ECM while
the other circuit provides coolant temperature information to
the instrument cluster.
The ECM determines the correct ignition timing and airlfuel
mixture required
forthe engine temperature by monitoring an

(5vdc) to the sensor.Thevoltage drop across
the sensor varies as the coolant temperature (sensor resis-
tance) changes.
NOTE-
The ECT sensor is an NTC (negative temperature coeffi-
cient) type sensor. In other words, as the temperature rises,
resistance through the sensor decreases.
If the ETC sensor input is faulty or non-plausible, the MIL is il-
luminated when the MIL is illuminated when
OED II fault crite-
ria are exceeded. The ECM assumes a substitute value
(80" C 11 76'F) to maintain engine operation. The ignition tim-
ing is set to a
conservativelsafe basic setting.
- Remove intake manifold to access ECT sensor on the M52
TU and the M54 engines. See 113 Cylinder Head Removal
and Installation.
- Check ECT sensor resistance using a multimeter at sensor
terminals.
WARNING -
Due to rislc of personal injury, be sure the engine is cold be-
fore removing ECT sensor connector.
