Working in right rear of engine compartment:
Release interior ventilation filter cover latch
(A) and re-
move cover.
Release plastic locking tab
(6).
Rotate duct inward (arrow) to unlock from bulk head and
remove duct.
Release spring
lock (C) to remove lower iilter housing.
Slide filter housing away from inner fender to remove.
- Remove electrical box (E-box) cover fasteners and remove
cover.
NOTE-
OBD I1 fault memory (including an illuminated MIL) can
only be reset using an electronic scan tool. Removing the
connector from the ECM or disconnecting the battery will
not erase the fault
memory.
The BMW-dedicated 20-pin diagnostic linlc connector
(DLC) is in the right rear of the engine compartment.
The 16-pin OBD
I1 diagnostic connector (arrow) is located
inside the car on the lower left dash panel.
ECM relay, testing
Fuses lor ECM In E-bbx 502130488
4 The engine control module (ECM) relay is energized via the
ECM and supplies battery positive
(B+) power to many of the
engine management components and subsystems.
If this re-
lay is faulty, the engine will not start.
Relay positions can vary. Be sure to confirm relay position by
identifying the wiring in the socket using the wiring diagrams
in
ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams.
NOTE-
The ECM relay is also referred to as the DME main relay.

Fuel Injection I
Mass air flow (MAF) sensor,
checking and replacing
4 The hot film mass air flow (MAF) sensor (arrow) sends a
varying voltage (approx.
0.5 - 4.5 vdc) to the ECM represent-
ing the measured intake air. The air mass input signal is pro-
duced electronically by the
MAFsensorusing a heated metal
film in the air flow stream.
The ECM relay provides the operating voltage to the MAF
sensor. As air flows through the MAF sensor, the film is
-
cooled. To maintain the film at a constant temperature, addi-
tional heating current is necessary. It is this additional current
that is the basis for the input signal.
If there is no output signal from the MAF sensor, the ECM op-
erates the engine using throttle position and engine rpm in-
puts. A faulty MAF sensor illuminates the MIL.
A faulty MAF sensor can produce the following problems:
Difficult to restart when engine is hot.
Engine starts then stalls.
Engine starts and runs only with accelerator pedal de-
pressed.
Disconnect electrical harness connector from MAF sensor
(arrow).
- Turn ignition on and check for voltage and ground at connec-
tor.
There should be ground at pin
1 and battery voltage at pin
3.
If any faults are found, check for wiring breaks between
MAF sensor and ECM and between MAF sensor and ECM
relay.
NOTE-
Visually inspect the sensor for damage, missing or blocked
screens. The screens affect air flow calibration. Also inspect
the sealing O-rings where the sensor inserts into the air
filter
housing and intake boot. Ensure the pin connections are
clean and tight.
4 Connect a BMW-compatible scan tool or an OBD II generic
scan tool. Check air mass signal (load signal) with the engine
at idle. Raise idle speed and check that load signal changes
with rpm.

Fuel injectors, checking and replacing
The fuel injectors are electronically controlled solenoid valves
that provide precisely metered and atomized fuel into the en-
gine intake ports.
The injectors receive voltage from the ECM relay. The ECM
controls the opening by activating the ground circuit
forthe in-
jector valve solenoids. The ECM varies the duration (in milli-
seconds) of "opening" time to regulate the
airlfuel ratio.
For a quick
check of the injectors, run the engine and touch
each injector with a screwdriver or stethoscope. You should
feel a vibration or hear a buzzing
Remove fuel injection harness from injectors by unclipping
locking clip at each injector. Lift harness off injectors.
CA U JIOG
Be sure ignition is OFF before disconnecting or reconnecting
DME system components.
Use a multimeter to test injector coil resistance between in-
jector terminals.
l~uel injector coil resistance 16R at 20" C (68" F)
Disconnect negative
(-) battery cable
CAUTIOG
Prior to disconnecting the battery, read the battery discon-
nection cautionsgiven
in 001 General Warnings and Cau-
tions.
4 Remove plastic trim plugs (arrows) and fasteners, then re.
move cover from above fuel injectors.
- Disconnect vacuum line from fuel pressure regulator.
- Remove wiring harness duct mounting fasteners.

- As an alternative, harness connector housing can be sepa-
rated so that electrical
checlts can be made from backof con-
nector.
4 If replacing ECM, disconnect control module harness con-
nector (arrow) by releasing fastener and pivoting connector
up and
off ECM.
CAUTION-
Be sure ignition is OFF before disconnecting or reconnecting
DME system components.
- Remove ECM from retaining brackets and lift off holder.
- Installation is reverse of removal.
- Before attempting to start engine, use BMW service tester
DISplus, MoDiC, GTI or equivalent:
- Code replacement ECM with application information (i.e.
engine code, transmission type, etc.).
Align ECM to EWS (electronic immobilizer).
Siemens MS 41.1 ECM pin assignments
ECM pin assignments are given in Table b. For engine man-
agement system schematics, see ELE Electrical Wiring
Di-
agrams.
CAUTION-
a Always wait at least one minute after turning off the ignition
before removing the connector from the
ECM. If the con-
nector is removed before this time, residual power
in the
system relay may damage the
ECM.
Always connect or disconnect the control module con-
nector and meter probes with the ignition
off
When malting checks at the ECM itself, a breakout box
should be used to allow tests to be made with the connector
attached to the ECM. This also prevents damage to the small
terminals in the connector. As an alternative, the harness
connector housing can be separated so that electrical checlts
can be made from the back of the connector.

SIEMENS MIS 42.0 AND 43.0
When system faults are detected, a diagnostic trouble code
(DTC) is stored in the engine control module (ECM). The MIL
also illuminates
if an emissions-related fault is detected.
When faults arise, or
if the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) is
illuminated, begin troubleshooting by connecting BMW ser-
vice tester
DISplus, MoDiC, GTI or equivalent scan tool. The
capabilities of OBD
II software has the potential to save hours
of diagnostic time and to help avoid incorrect component re-
placement and possible damage to system components.
CAUTION-
* The tests in this section may set fault codes (DTCs) in tlie
ECM and illuminate the MIL. After all testing is completed,
access and clear DTC fault
memory using an OBD I/ or
BMW compatible scan tool. See
OBD On-Board Diag-
nostics.
Only use a
dgital multimeter for electrical tests.
Relay positions can vary. Be sure to confirm
relayposi-
tion by identifying the wiring in the socket using the wir-
ing diagrams found in
ELE Electrical Wiring
Diagrams.
NOTE-
- OBD I1 fault memory. (including an illuminated MIL! can
only be reset using the special scan tool. Removing the
connector from the ECM or disconnecting the battery will
not erase the fault memory.
The BMW-dedicated 20-pin diagnostic
linlc connector
(DLC) is in the right rear of the engine compartment The
20-pin DLC is discontinued on models after
6/2000.
The 1 &pin OBD I1 diagnostic connector (arrow) is located
inside the car on the lower left dash panel.
