Consult
an
authorized
BMW

before
replacing

.

ECM

are
given
in
Tables

This
information
can
be
helpful
when
diagnosing
faultsto
or
from
the

.
If
al¡
inputs

are
OK
butoperational
problems
still
exist,
the

may
be
faulty

Generally,
absence
of
voltage
or
continuity
means
there
is
a
wiring
or
connector
problem
.
Test
results
with
incorrect
values
do
notnecessarily
mean
that
a
component
is
faulty
:
Check
for
loose,
broken
or
corroded
connections
and
wiring
before
re-
placing
components
.
If
the
results
are
still
incorrect,
test
the
component
itself
.
For
engine
management
system
electrical
schematics,
see
Electrical
Wiring
Diagrams
.

CAUTION-

Always
waitat
least
40
seconds
after
tuniing
off
the
ignition
before
removing
the
connector
from
the
engine
control
module
(ECM)
.
If
the
connec-
tor
is
removed
before
this
time,
residual
power
in
the
system
relay
may
damage
the
ECM
.

"
Always
connector
disconnect
the
control
module
connector
and
meter
probes
with
the
ignitionoff
.

When
making
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
tothe
small
termínals
in
the
connector
.
As
an
alternative,
theharness
con-
nector
housing
can
be
separated
so
that
electrical
checks
can
be
made
from
the
back
of
the
connector
.
