Alternator, removing and installing
(6-cylinder engine)
A replacement alternator should have the same rating as the
original. Alternator manufacturer and ampere rating are nor-
mally marked on the alternator housing.
- Disconnect negative (-) battery cable.
CAUTION-
Prior to disconnecting the batteg read the battery discon-
nection cautions given
in 001 General Warnings and Cau-
I tions.
Remove complete air filter housing:
Loosen intake duct hose clamp
(A) at throttle assembly.
Loosen clamp and remove idle control hose from intake
duct
(B) and disconnect idle speed control valve electrical
harness connector.
Disconnect electrical harness connector
(C) from mass air
flow sensor.
* Remove air filter housing mounting screw (D),
Disconnect vent tube (E).
Loosen air intake duct clamp (F).
Carefully lifl air filter housing out of engine bay.
Remove alternator drive belt. See belt removal procedures in
020 Maintenance.
- Remove radiator cooling fan and fan shroud. See 170 Radi-
ator and Cooling System.
NOTE-
The radiator cooling fan nut (32 mm wrench) has left-hand
threads.
- Unbolt power steering fluid reservoir and bracket. Suspend to
one side without detaching fluid hoses.
- Disconnect alternator air cooling tube.

Fuel Injection
Remove MAF sensor:
Release clips from air filter housing
(A).
Disconnect harness connector (B).
Loosen intake boot clamp (C) and remove MAF sensor.
Note large sealing O-rings.
Installation is reverse of removal.
No adjustment to MAF sensor is possible.
Check intake hoses for cracks and vacuum leaks.
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.
ECT sensor resistance @ 20" C (68°F) 2.2 - 2.7
Temperature gauge sensor resistance @ 20°C (~B"F)( 6.7 k

Fuel Injection
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
4 Disconnect electrical harness connector from MAF sensor
(B).
- Turn ignition on and checlc 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, checlc for wiring breaks between
MAF sensor and ECM and between MAF sensor and main
DME relay.
NOTE-
Visually inspect the sensor for damage, missing or blocked
screens. The screens affect air flow calibration. Also inspect
the sealina
0-rinas 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 OED II generic
scan tool.
Checlc air mass signal (load signal) with the engine
at idle. Raise idle speed and
checlc that load signal changes
with rpm.
CAUTION-
Be sure ignition is OFFbefore disconnecting or reconnecting
DME system components.
Remove MAF sensor:
Loosen intake boot clamp
(A).
Disconnect harness connector (6).
* Release clip from air filter housing (C) and remove sensor.
- Installation is reverse of removal.
No adjustment to MAF sensor is possible.
Check intake hoses for cracks and vacuum
lealts.

- Remove 4 fuel rail mounting fasteners.
4 Disconnect fuel line at quick-disconnect. To disconnect,
press in plastic collar (arrow) and separate fuel line.
WARNING -
Fuel may be expelled underpressure. Do not srnol(e or work
near heaters or
other fire hazards. Keep a fire extinguisher
handy. Before disconnecting fuel hoses, wrap a cloth around
fuel hose
to absorb anv leakinq fuel. Plug all open fuel lines.
- Lifl fuel rail and injectors straight up to remove.
- lnstallation is reverse of removal. Use new injector seals and
clamps during installation.
Mass air flow (MAF) sensor,
removing and installing
4 The MAF sensor is provided with operating power from the
ECM relay. Based on intake air mass, the MAF sensor gen-
erates a varying voltage (approx. 0.5
- 4.5 vdc) as an input
signal
back to the ECM. A separate intalte air temperature
sensor is not used.
- Removing MAF sensor:
Remove upper air filter housing locking clips
Unscrew and remove sensor harness.
Disconnect air temperature sensor harness.
Loosen hose clamp.
Remove upper filter housing with sensor.
- lnstallation is reverse of removal

insert two M6 screws (arrows) in tapped bores and tighten
uniformly until pump is free from timing chain cover (thermo-
stat and hoses have been removed for purposes of visual
clarity).
Installation is reverse of removal, noting the following:
Be sure to replace sealing O-ring and gaskets.
Coat O-ring with water-based lubricant during installation.

Brakes
- Pump brake pedal a few times to reduce vacuum in brake
booster. This makes removal of
check valve easier.
- Remove or loosen hose clamp(s) at check valve.
- Disconnect hoses. Remove valve to test or replace.
NOTE-
If valve is pressed into grommet in vacuum booster, pry it out
carefully.
- Reinstall valve using new hose clamps
NOTE-
Install the valve so that the molded arrow is pointing toward
the intake manifold.

All E39 vehicles sold in the USA are equipped with Antiloclc
Braking System (ABS) and either Automatic Stability Control
(ASC) or Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). In order for the
bralchg and stability controls to work properk if brake fluid
lines are disconnected and reconnected,
male sure that the
brake system is bled by an authorized BMW dealer or other
qualified repair facility using the BMW Service Tester: See
Brake Bleeding earlier in this group.
- Disconnect negative (-) cable from battery.
I CAUTION- I
Prior to disconnecting the battery read the battery discon-
nection cautions given in
001 General Cautions and
I Warnings. I
