- Check for battery voltage at terminal 50 of starter motor with
key in start position. If voltage is not present, check wiring be-
tween ignition switch and starter terminal. Check the EWS
system and other inputs that disrupt terminal
56 to the start-
er. See ELE Electrical
Wiring Diagrams. If voltage is
present and no other visible wiring faults can be found, prob-
lem is most likely in starter motor.
Starter, removing and installing
(6-cylinder engine)
The starter is removed from below. Access to starter bolts is
difficult. Be sure to have the proper tools on hand before pro-
ceeding.
NOTE-
Access to the starter wiring is very limited. Forbetteraccess,
it may be necessary to remove the intake manifold.
- Disconnect negative (-) battery cable.
CAUTIOI\C
Prior to disconnecting the battern read the baltery discon-
nection cautions
in OOlGeneral Cautions and Warnings.
Remove complete air filter hous~ng:
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 lift air filter housing out of engine bay.
Disconnect throttle cable.
Raise vehicle and support safely.
WARNING-
Make sure the car is stable and well supported at all times.
Use a professional automotive
lift orjack stands designed for
the purpose. A
floorjaclc is not adequate support
- Working underneath car, remove engine splash shield
- Disconnect fuel lines and harness connectors from retaining
brackets, as necessary.

- Disconnect intake air boot from throttle housing. Unbolt throt-
tle housing and lay aside. It is not necessary to disconnect
throttle cable or electrical harness connectors from throttle housing.
- Remove electrical harness connector from IAT sensor.
- Unclip temperature sensor and remove from intake manifold.
- Installation is reverse of removal. Use a new gasket at throttle
housing.
Throttle position sensor (TPS),
testing and replacing
4 The throttle position sensor (arrow) is located on top of the
throttle valve housing and provides the ECM with a voltage
value that represents throttle position (angle) and rate of
movement.
TheTPS is non-adjustable. If the throttle position sensor is re-
placed, the previous 'learned' TPS settings must be cleared
from the ECM using a BMW-compatible scan tool.
If the throttle position sensor signal is defective, afault code is
stored and the
MILis illuminated when OBD II fault criteria are
exceeded. The ECM still operates the engine using the mass
air flow
(MAF) sensor and engine rpm inputs.
- Check throttle position sensor function by disconnecting har-
ness connector and checking continuity across terminals. If
test results are incorrect,
replace throttle position sensor. The
sensor is non-adjustable.

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.

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.
