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.
Prior to disconnecting the
battely, read the battery discon-
nection cautions in
001 General Warnings and Cautions.
Access engine control module (ECM):
Release interior ventilation filter cover latch
(A) and re-
move cover.
Release plastic locking tab
(B).
Rotate air duct inward (arrow) to unloclc from bulk head
and remove duct.
Release spring lock
(C) to remove lower filter housing.
Slide filter housing 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 the
ECM. This prevents damage to small terminals in connector.

Fuel Injection
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.
- The ground side of the oxygen sensor heater circuit is pulsed
on and off by the
DME control module.

I Oxygen sensors, replacing
4 Four Bosch oxygen sensors (2 precatalytic converter sen-
sors and
2 post-catalytic converter sensors) provide a vary-
ing voltage signal
[0.2 vdc (max. lean) to 0.8 vdc (max. rich)]
to the ME
7.2 ECM representing oxygen content in the ex-
haust gas.
WARNING-
Exhaust manifolds and pipes can be hot enough to cause se-
rious burns. Wear suitable heavy gloves and other appropri-
ate protection.
- Using a special oxygen sensor socltet, remove the threaded
sensors from the exhaust system.
- If not already applied, coat the new oxygen sensor threads
with an anti-seize compound before installation. Do not get
compound on the sensor tip.

CAUTION-
Prior to disconnecting the battea read the battery discon-
nection cautions given at the front of this manual. See 001
General Warnings and Cautions.
- Remove both ignition coil covers.
Disconnect ignition coil connectors.
Remove left and right ignition coil ground wires,

Radiator and Cooling ~vsteml
< V-8 engine bloclc drain plugs (one shown at arrow) are locat-
ed on each side of engine block (exhaust manifold removed
for photo).
- Place 5-gallon pail underneath engine block coolant drain
plugs.
- Remove engine bloclc coolant drain plugs and drain coolant.
- Reinstall radiator and engine block drain plugs using new
sealing washers.
- Before refilling radiator:
Switch ignition to
ON. (Do not start engine)
Set temperature controls to full warm.
- Set blower control to low.
- Using a coolant mixture of 50% antifreeze and 50% distilled
water, fill expansion tank slowly. Continue until coolant
emerges from bleed screw. Cooling system capacity is listed
in Tabled. Cooling system capacity
(V-8 models).
NOTE- Be sure radiator bleed screw is loose when filling cooling
system.
Tap water may cause corrosion of radiator, engine and
coolant hoses.
Coolant can often be reused provided it is clean and less
than two years old. Do not reuse coolant when replacing
damaged engine parts.
- Bleed cooling system. See Cooling system, bleeding
