Fuel Injection Evaporative fuel system pressure leak
diagnosis, overview
(M5.2.1 only)
1998 540i models are equipped with an evaporative fuel sys-
tem pressure leak diagnosis system. The main component of
this system is the leak diagnosis pump (LDP). The function of
the LDP is to pressurize the fuel tank and the evaporative
emission system for the purpose of detecting
leaks. This sys-
tem is capable of detecting a leak as small as 0.5 mm.
The LDP, located in the left rear wheel housing, is a unitized
component that contains the following:
Vacuum chamber. Pneumatic pump chamber.
DME activated vacuum solenoid
Reed switch (provides switched voltage
feedback signal to
ECM).
The vacuum supply line is in the wiring harness from the en-
gine compartment and runs down the driver's side of the vehi-
cle.
The canister vent valve is integrated into the LDP, which is
electrically controlled by the ECM. The canister vent valve is
opened to provide fresh air entry into the fuel system only dur-
ing purge operation.
- Purge operation characteristics:
Off idle through full throttle: purge valve opened by pulse
width modulated (PWM) control of the ECM. PWM duty cy-
cle varies by engine operating conditions
(e.g. warm idle,
purge valve opened slightly; cold
idleldecel with engine
temp
< 67" C, purge valve always closed).

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, GTl 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.
CA UTIOI\C
The tests in this section may set fault codes (DTCs) in the
ECM and illuminate the MIL. After all testing is completed,
access and clear DTC fault memory using an OBD
I1 or
BMW compatible scan tool. See OBD On-Board Diag-
nostics.
. Only use a digital multimeter for electrical tests.
Relay positions can vary. Be sure to confirm relay posi-
tion by identifying the wiring in the
socket using the wir-
ing diagrams found in ELE Electrical Wiring
Diaqrams.
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.
0 The BMW-dedicated 20-pin diagnostic link connector
(DLC) is in the right rear of the engine compartment. The
20-pin DLC was eliminated on models after
6/2000.
The 16-pin OBD I1 diagnostic connector (arrow) is located
inside the car on the lower left dash panel.

ME 7.2 system overview
The Bosch ME 7.2 system is used on 1999 - 2002 540i mod-
els.

The ME 7.2 system has the following functions or capabilities:
Electronic throttle control (EDK) integrates idle and cruise
control functions. ECM carries out all throttle and idle con-
trol functions directly via EDK system.
Leak diagnosis pump
(LDP) control and feedback monitor-
ing for evaporative system leak testing.
Batterylalternator charge logic (idle speed varies with bat-
tery state of charge).
CAN-Bus communications with instrument cluster.
EWS

DSC (dynamic stability control) torque reduction.
Monitoring and control of VANOS
(camshaft timing) with
active Hail sensor for camshaft position monitoring.
Integrated altitude sensor.
One touch engine start control
Single speed secondary air injection system.
Long life spark plugs.
IHKA auxiliary (electric) cooling fan control.
All emissions-related ME 7.2 electrical components are mon-
itored for faults. if driveability complaints are encountered or
the malfunction indicator
light (MIL) is illuminated, interrogate
fault memory using a compatible scan tool.

at the control module
(break out box set: BMW special tool

4 The ME 7.2 uses a non-return fuel rail. The fuel pressure reg-
ulator is integrated into the fuel filter.

4 The M62 TU engine uses a continuously variable VANOS
system at each intake camshaft. This system enhances en-
gine performance and reduces tailpipe emissions. Both cam-
shafts are adjusted simultaneously within
20" (maximum) of
the camshafts rotational axis. This equates to a maximum
span of
40°crankshaft rotation.
regulalor from luel pump
NOTE-
The fuel filter is available as a replacement part without the
fuel pressure regulator. When replacing the fuel filter, trans-
fer the fuel pressure regulator from the old
filter to the new fil-
ter.
Engine idle speed control is a function of the EDK. The M62
TU engine does not use a separate idle control valve.
Mmn CON,ROL
EML
< The M62 TU engine uses an electrically controlled throttle
valve called EDK. The throttle plate is positioned by a DC
gear reduction motor based on inputs signals to the ECM
from the pedal position sensor (PWG).
When the accelerator pedal is moved, the PWG provides a
change in the monitored signals. The ME
7.2 control module
compares the input signal to a programmed map and appro-
priately activates the EDK motor via proportional pulse width
modulated control signals. The control module self-checks its
activation of the EDK motor via the EDK feedbaclc
potentiom-
eters.

CAUTION-
Relay positions can vary Be sure to confirm relay position by
identifying the wiring in the
socl(et using the wiring diagrams
in ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams.
Working in right rear of engine compartment:
Release interior ventilation filter cover latch
(A) and re-
move cover.
Release plastic locking tab
(B).
Rotate duct inward (arrow) to unlock from bulk head and
remove duct.
Release spring
loclt (C) to remove lower filter housing.
Slide filter housing away from inner fender to remove.
- Remove electrical box (E-box) cover fasteners and remove
cover.
4 With ignition off, remove main relay (arrow) in electronics
box (E-box) at right rear of engine compartment.
NOTE-
Relay locations can vary Confirm relay identification by
matching wiring colors and terminal numbers.
4 Check for voltage at terminal 6 of main relay socket (30-red
wire).
If battery voltage is present, continue testing.
If battery voltage is not present, check large red wire in re-
lay socltet. See ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams.
- Reinstall relay and turn ignition on. Gain access to underside
of relay socket and check for ground at terminal
4 (85-brown
wire).
If ground is present, continue testing.
If ground is not present, switched ground signal from ECM
is missing. Check wire between ECM and relay.
- With ignition on and relay installed, check for battery voltage
at terminal
2 (87-redlwhite wire).
If battery voltage is present, relay has energized and is
functioning correctly.
If battery voltage is not present and all earlier tests are OK.
relay is faulty and should be replaced.
