Warnings
and
Cautions
For
personal
safety,
as
well
as
the
protection
of
sensitive
electronic
components,
the
following
warnings
and
cautions
should
be
adhered
to
when
working
on
the
engine
manage-
ment
system
.
GENERAL
WARNING
-
"
The
ignition
system
produces
high
voltages
that
can
be
fatal
.
Avoid
contact
with
exposed
termi-
nals
.
Use
extreme
caution
when
working
onacar
with
the
ignition
switched
on
or
the
engine
run-
ning
.
"
Do
not
touch
or
disconnect
any
high
voltage
ca-
bles
from
the
coils
or
spark
plugs
while
the
engine
is
running
or
beingcranked
by
the
starter
.
"
Connect
and
disconnect
the
DME
system
wiring
and
test
equipment
leads
only
when
the
ignition
is
switched
off
.
"
Gasoline
is
highly
flammable
and
fts
vaporsare
explosive
.
Do
not
smoke
or
work
on
a
car
near
heaters
or
other
fire
hazards
when
diagnosing
and
repalring
fuel
system
problems
.
Have
a
tire
extinguisher
avaílable
in
case
of
an
emergency
.
"
When
working
onan
open
fuel
system,
wear
suit-
able
hand
protection,
asprolonged
contact
wfth
fuel
can
cause
illnesses
and
skin
disorders
.
"
Renew
fuel
system
hoses,
clamps
and
O-rings
any
timethey
are
removed
.
"
Before
makingany
electrical
tests
that
require
the
engine
to
be
cranked
using
the
starter,
disable
the
ignition
system
as
described
in
120
Ignition
System
.
CAUTION-
"
Prior
to
disconnecting
the
battery,
read
the
bat-
tery

cautions
given
at
the
front
of
this
manual

Do
not
connect
any
test
equipment
that
delivers
a
12-volt
power
supply
to
terminal
15
(+)
of
the
ig-
nitioncoil
.
The
current
flow
may
damage
the
ECM
.
In
general,
connect
test
equipment
only
as
speclfied
by
BMW,
this
manual,
or
the
equipment
maker
.
"
Only
use
a
digital
multlmeter
for
electrical
test
.
"
Only
use
an
LED
test
light
for
quick
tests
.
"
Disconnecting
the
battery
may
erase

CAUTION-
"
The
information
inthis
sectionapplies
to
Bosch
engine
management
systems
only
.
"
The
Siemens
MS
41
.1
system
uses
resistive-type
oxygen
sensors
.
This
sensor
uses
a
5-volt
refer-
ence
signal
input
and
the
output
to
the
ECM
var-
ees
from
1-5
volts,
in
stepped
increments
based
on
oxygen
content
in
the
exhaust
.
NOTE-
"
On
pre-08D
11(1992-1995)
cars,
there
is
one
oxygen
sensor
mounted
upstream
of
the
catalytic
convert-
er(s)
in
the
exhaust
pipe
.
See
Fig
.

.
"
On
OBD
11
cars
(1996-1998)
cars,
there
is
one
oxygen
sensor
before
andone
after
each
catalytic
converter
.
"
OnM52
and
S52US
engines,
the
front
pairof
oxygen
sensors
are
installed
in
the
exhaust
manifolds
.
The
oxygen
sensor
providesan
input
voltage
signal
(0-1
VDC)
to
the
ECM
based
on
the
oxygen
content
in
the
exhaust
gas
.
TO
generate
voltage,
the
sensor
temperature
must
exceed
575°F
(300°C)
.
Therefore
it
ís
electrically
heated
.
NOTE-
"
The
test
given
below
is
not
a
conclusive
test
of
oxygen
sensor
efficiency
and
does
not
test
how
quickly
the
oxygensensor
can
react
to
changing
conditions
.
"
Pin
numbers
and
wirecolors
can
vary
.
Always
check
the
wiring
diagrams
to

"
When
working
onanopen

system,
wear
suit-

Prolonged
contact
with
fuel
can
cause
illnesses
and
skin
disorders
.
To
prevent
fuel
from
spraying
on
a
hot
engine,
system
fuel
pressure
should
be
relieved
before
disconnecting

.
One
method
is
to
tightly
wrap
a

OnM44
engines,
a
Schrmder
valve
is
integrated
in
the
fuel

.
Compressed
air
pressure
canbe
applied
at

.
On
some
vehicles,
thisis
not
possible
without
cutting
finto

.
In
these
lnstances,
it
Is
recom-
mended
that

be
checked
at
