Throttle cable, adjusting
(MS 42.0)
The throttle assembly on MS 42.0 cars uses a throttle cable.
The cable should be adjusted any time it is disconnected or
replaced. This procedure requires the factory scan tool or an
equivalent to read and adjust throttle angle. It is recommend-
ed the procedure be done by an authorized
BMW dealer ser-
vice department
Basic adjustment:
Ensure that at idle (accelerator pedal in rest position) throt-
tle cable has detectable play at throttle lever attaching
point. Play must not exceed maximum allowable.
Adjust by turning knurled adjuster
(arrow) on end of throt-
tle cable sheath at throttle housing.
NOTE-
Faulty throttle adjustment values must be reset using the
BMW service tester
DISplus, MoDiC, GTI or equivalent.

ldle speed control valve,
checking and replacing
3 mm (0.125 in)
The Idle speed control valve regulates Idle speed by red~rect-
ing air around the throttle valve. The ldle speed control valve
is mounted
d~rectly above the throttle housing. Accessing the
valve is best accomplished by
flrst removing the air fllter
housing and associated ducting.
Thevalve is supplied with batteryvoltage from the ECM relay.
The idle speed control valve incorporates a two-coil rotary ac-
tuator. The ground sides of each coil are pulsed simulta-
neously by the ECM. The duty cycle of each circuit is varied to
achieve the required idle speed.
A faulty idle speed control valve sets a fault code and the MIL
is illuminated when
OED II fault criteria are exceeded.
Before checking the idle speed control valve, confirm that the
throttle position sensor is working correctly.
- With engine running, check that idle speed control valve is
buzzing.
- Turn on AIC system or shift transmission into drive. ldle
should remain steady or increase slightly.
- If idle speed valve is not buzzing, or if idle decreases when
AIC is turned on, stop engine and disconnect harness con-
nector from idle speed valve.

Evaporative emissions control diagrams
MS 42.0 (LDP) ,-a"-
Evaporative emissions control,
(MS 42.0, MS 43.0)
E39 models with MS 42.0 or MS 43.0 engine are equipped
with a fuel system evaporative pressure leak diagnosis sys-
tem. The main component of this system is the leak diagnosis
pump (LDP or DM-TL). The function of either system is to
pressurize the fuel tank and the evaporative emission system
for the purpose of detecting leaks.

Engine control module (ECM),
removing and installing
The ECM uses stored functions and processing programs to
process the input signals from the sensors. These input sig-
nals are used to calculate the control (output) signals to the
actuators
(e.g., ignition coils, injectors).
NOTE-
Consult an authorized BMW dealer before replacing the
ECM.
- Disconnect negative (-) battery cable. Wait approximately
one minute.
CAUTION-
Prior to disconnecting the batteg read the battery discon-
nection cautions
in 001 General Warnings and Cautions.
4 Access engine control module (ECM):
Release
interlor ventilation filter cover latch (A) and re-
move cover.
Release plastic loclting tab
(B).
Rotate air duct inward (arrow) to unloclt from bulk head
and remove duct.
Release spring lock
(C) to remove lower filter housing.
Slide
f~lter hous~ng away from inner fender to remove.
- Remove electrical box (E-box) cover fasteners and remove
cover.
- If testing ECM or connected components, use breakout box
to allow tests to be made with connector attached to ECM.
This prevents damage to small terminals in connector.
- - As an alternative, harness connector housing can be sepa-
rated so that electrical checks can be made from
back of con-
nector.
4 If replacing ECM, disconnect control module harness con-
nector (arrow) by releasing fastener and pivoting connector
up and off ECM.

Oxygen sensors, checking
The oxygen sensor provides an input voltage signal [0.2 vdc
(lean) to 0.8 vdc (rich)] to the
ECM based on the oxygen con-
tent in the exhaust gas. To generate voltage, the sensor tem-
perature must exceed 575"
F (300" C). Therefore the sensor
is electrically heated.
NO JE -
The test given below is not a conclusive test of oxygen sen-
sor efficiency and does not test how the oxygen sensor re-
acts to changing conditions. Pin numbers and wire colors
can vary Always check the wiring diagrams to confirm wire
color and pin assignment.
0 The oxygen sensorconnectorplugs are locatednext to the
catalytic converters.
With connector attached to sensor, connect digital voltmeter
between
A and B wires in connector.
WARNING -
Exhaust manifolds andpipes can be hot enough to cause se-
rious burns. Wear suitable heavy gloves and other appropri-
ate protection.
NOJE-
Connector style may vary depending on system application.
Consult wiring diagram for system-specific wiring. See
ELE
Electrical Wiring Diagrams.
Start engine.
A fluctuating voltage signal should show on the
meter.
If voltage is incorrect, turn engine off and check pre-
heater circuit as described below.
NOJE-
To check sensor response to lean and rich mixtures, create
an air leak.
Oxygen sensor
voltage at idle
- Connect digital voltmeterbetween sensor heaterwires (white
wires,
C and D). Start engine and check for battery voltage.
If voltage is not present, check oxygen sensor heater fuses.
0.2 to 0.8 vdc fluctuating
NOJE-
The oxygen sensor heater is powered via fusedpositive (+)
battery voltage and a switchedground from the ECM. See
ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams for specific circuit informa-
tion.

4 Release spring clips (arrows) from fuel injectors and pull in-
jector electrical loom straight up to remove.
4 Check that ECM signal is present at injector connectors.
- Connect digital voltmeter to fuel injector harness plug.
Operate starter and
check for voltage pulse.
* Repeat for each injector.
- Remove fuel injectors by removing retaining clips
- Installation is reverse of removal:
Fit new O-rings when installing injectors. For ease of instal-
lation, lightly lubricate all fuel system O-rings with assem-
bly lubricant.
Check that injector electrical connections are correctly fit-
ted and that
injectors are fully seated prior to installing iuel
rail mounting bolts.
Mass air flow sensor (MAF), replacing
The MAF sensor is provided with operating power from the
ECM relay. Based on calculated intake air mass, the MAF
generates
avarying voltage (approx. 0.5 - 4.5 vdc) as an input
signal to the ECM.
4 Remove MAF sensor:
Remove upper air filter housing locking clips.
Unscrew and remove MAF sensor harness
(A).
Disconnect intake air temperature sensor harness (B).
Loosen hose clamp (C).
Remove upper filter housing with sensor.

- If voltage is present as described above, check wiring be-
tween ECM and valve. If no wiring faults are found, check
ECM signal to valve.
- When replacing idle speed control valve, clean and inspect
all sealing areas.
. Inspect sealing ring in throttle body and replace if neces-
sary.
Throttle position sensor (TPS),
testing and replacing
The throttle position sensor (arrow) is mounted on the side
of the primary throttle housing and is directly connected to
the throttle valve shaft. The ECM sends a voltage signal to
the potentiometer-type sensor and monitors the voltage that
comes back. Resistance decreases (voltage increases) as
the throttle opens.
NOTE-
Do not confuse the TPS on the primary throttle housing with
the throttle switch on the
ASC secondary throttle housing.
4 Check throttle position sensor function by disconnecting har-
ness connector and checking across terminals. If any faults
are found, replace throttle position sensor.
Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor,
testing and replacing
Throttle position sensor (M62 engine)
The ECT sensor is located on the front of the engine in the
coolanVthermostat flange.The ECTsensor is a dual tempera-
ture sensor. One circuit provides coolant temperature infor-
mation 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
