< Check for battery voltage at alternator terminal 30 (B+) (ar-
row):
Pull back rubber insulating cover at terminal 30 at rear of
alternator.
Connect voltmeter between terminal 30 and ground and
check for battery voltage.
If voltage is not present, check
wiring for faults.
NOTE-
On V-8 engines, access to the rear of the alternator is limited.
Check for battery voltage between the jump start post on the
left cylinder head and ground.
r Disconnect harness connector from alternator. Turn ianition
on and check for battery voltage between terminal
lgand
ground. If voltage is not present, check wiring and fuses for
faults.
Reconnect connector to alternator.
Locate the blue wire coming from terminal
61E of the alter-
nator connector. Carefully connect the positive
(+) test lead
to the wire using a piercing test lead end.
Turn ignition key on and check for voltage. Voltage should be
less than 1.5 VDC and charge indicator lamp should light.
- Making sure all test equipment and tools are clear, start en-
gine. Voltage should increase to
8.0 VDC or higher. The
charge indicator light should go out.
If voltage does not increase and system is not charging,
the fault is in alternator.
- If voltage does not increase, but system is charging, inter- - roaate svstem for faults usina an appropriate BMW scan - .. . tool and'reset fault memory.
- If a load tester is not available, a quick alternator output test
can be done by running engine at about 2000 rpm and turn-
- -
ing on electrical loads (fans, lights, rear window defroster, -
- and wipers). With all accessories on, battery voltage should
be above 12.6
V.

NOTE-
* Professional diagnostic scan tools available at the time of
this printing include the BMW factory tools and a small
number of aftermarket BMW-specific tools. The
CS2000
from Baum Tools Unlimited, the Retriever from Assenma-
chef Specialty Tools, and the MT2500 from Snap-on are
three examples.
In addition to the BMW-specific professional line of scan
tools, there are inexpensive generic OBD
I1 scan tool soft-
ware programs and
handheld units available. Although
these tools have limited capabilities as compared to the
dedicated tools, they are powerful diagnostic tools.
For the
DIY owner, simple aftermarltet DTC readeris avail-
able through
http://www.pealteresearch.com. This tool is
capable of checlting for
DTCs as well as turning off the il-
luminated
MIL and resetting the service indicator lights.
Tools and test equipment
If the equipment required to do the job is unavailable, it is rec-
ommended that these repairs be left to an authorized
BMW
dealer or other qualified BMW repair facility.

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

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

capabilities of OBD
II software has the potential to save hours
of diagnostic time and to help avoid incorrect component re-

CAUTION-
* The tests in this section may set fault codes (DTCs) in tlie

Throttle cable, adjusting
(MS 42.0)
The throttle assembly on MS 42.0 cars uses a throttle cable.
The cable should be adjusted any time it is disconnected or
replaced. This procedure requires the factory scan tool or an
equivalent to read and adjust throttle angle. It is recommend-
ed the procedure be done by an authorized
BMW dealer ser-
vice department
Basic adjustment:
Ensure that at idle (accelerator pedal in rest position) throt-
tle cable has detectable play at throttle lever attaching
point. Play must not exceed maximum allowable.
Adjust by turning knurled adjuster
(arrow) on end of throt-
tle cable sheath at throttle housing.
NOTE-
Faulty throttle adjustment values must be reset using the
BMW service tester
DISplus, MoDiC, GTI or equivalent.

ldle speed control valve,
checking and replacing
3 mm (0.125 in)
The Idle speed control valve regulates Idle speed by red~rect-
ing air around the throttle valve. The ldle speed control valve
is mounted
d~rectly above the throttle housing. Accessing the
valve is best accomplished by
flrst removing the air fllter
housing and associated ducting.
Thevalve is supplied with batteryvoltage from the ECM relay.
The idle speed control valve incorporates a two-coil rotary ac-
tuator. The ground sides of each coil are pulsed simulta-
neously by the ECM. The duty cycle of each circuit is varied to
achieve the required idle speed.
A faulty idle speed control valve sets a fault code and the MIL
is illuminated when
OED II fault criteria are exceeded.
Before checking the idle speed control valve, confirm that the
throttle position sensor is working correctly.
- With engine running, check that idle speed control valve is
buzzing.
- Turn on AIC system or shift transmission into drive. ldle
should remain steady or increase slightly.
- If idle speed valve is not buzzing, or if idle decreases when
AIC is turned on, stop engine and disconnect harness con-
nector from idle speed valve.

Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) utilizes many principles and
components of the ASC traction control system. DSC is ac-
tive throughoutthe driving range, unlike ASC which is only ac-
tive during acceleration and braking. DSC helps stabilize the
vehicle in cornering and avoidance maneuvers by adjusting
engine controls such as throttle, ignition, fuel injection and the
application of
brake pressure individually to the wheels.

vehicle instability during braking, cornering, or reduced trac-

trol module sends outputs to the engine control module and
the ABSIDSC hydraulic unit to activate torque reduction pro-
tocols and braking intervention.
