GENERAL
This

system
component
testing
and
repair
.
Special
equipment
is
necessary
for
some
of
the
procedures
given
in
this
repair
group
.
If
you
do
not
have
the
equipment
required
to
do
the
job,
it
is
recommended
that
these
repairs
be
left
to
an
authorized
BMW
dealer
.
The
BMW
dealer
is
equipped
with
sophisticated
diagnostic
test
equip-
ment
that
is
capable
of
quicklypinpointing
hard-to-find
fuel

.

OBD

The
fuel
injection
system
is
completely
electronic
in
opera-
tion
.
Air
flow
is
measured
electronically
via
a
mass
air
flow
sensor
and
additional
sensors
supply
information
about
en-
gine
operating
conditions
.
The
ECM
calculates
the
amount
of
fuel
needed
for
the
correct
air-fuel
ratio
and
actuates
the
fuel
injectors
accordingly
.
The
amount
offuel
metered
to
theen-
gine
is
determined
by
how
long
the
injectors
are
open
.
Airintake
.
Air
entering
the
engine
passes
through
a
pleat-
ed
paper
air
filter
in
the
air
cleaner
.
Intake
air
volume
or
mass
is
then
measured
bya
mass
air
flow
(MAF)
sensor
.
In
al¡
ex-
cept
the
vane
type
sensor
(DME
M1
.7),
a
reference
current
is
used
to
heat
a
thin
wireor
film
in
the
sensor
when
the
engine
is
running
.
The
current
used
to
heat
the
wire/film
is
electroni-
cally
converted
into
a
voltage
measurement
corresponding
to
the
mass
of
the
intake
air
.

Mass
air

sensor
(hot

testing
and

When
the
engine
is
running,
a
current
is
used
to
heat
a
thin
wire
in
the
center
of
the
sensor
.
See
Fig
.
25
.
The
current
in
the
wire
is
regulated
to
maintain
a
temperature
of
100°C
more
than
the
air
passing
over
it
.
The
current
used
to
heat
the
wire
is
electronically
conneced
into
a
voltage
measurement
corre-
sponding
to
the
mass
of
intake
a¡
r
.
To
keep
the
wire
clean,
it
is
heated
to
a
temperature
of
about
1,000°C
(1,830°F)
for
one
second
.
This
"burn-off"
cycle
takes
place
automatically,
four
seconds
after
the
engine
is
tumed
off
.
lf
thehot
wire
breaks
or
if
there
is
no
output
from
the
air
flow
sensor,
the
ECM
automatically
switches
to
a
"limp-home"
mode
and
tucos
on
the
Check
Engine
light
.
The
engine
can
usually
be
started
and
driven
.
The
air
flow
sensor
has
no
inter-
nal
moving
parts
and
cannot
be
serviced
