- If voltage is present as described above, check wiring be-
tween ECM and valve. If no wiring faults are found, check
ECM signal to valve.
- When replacing idle speed control valve, clean and inspect
all sealing areas.
. Inspect sealing ring in throttle body and replace if neces-
sary.
Throttle position sensor (TPS),
testing and replacing
The throttle position sensor (arrow) is mounted on the side
of the primary throttle housing and is directly connected to
the throttle valve shaft. The ECM sends a voltage signal to
the potentiometer-type sensor and monitors the voltage that
comes back. Resistance decreases (voltage increases) as
the throttle opens.
NOTE-
Do not confuse the TPS on the primary throttle housing with
the throttle switch on the
ASC secondary throttle housing.
4 Check throttle position sensor function by disconnecting har-
ness connector and checking across terminals. If any faults
are found, replace throttle position sensor.
Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor,
testing and replacing
Throttle position sensor (M62 engine)
The ECT sensor is located on the front of the engine in the
coolanVthermostat flange.The ECTsensor is a dual tempera-
ture sensor. One circuit provides coolant temperature infor-
mation to the ECM while the other circuit provides coolant
temperature information to the instrument cluster.
The ECM determines the correct ignition timing and
airlfuel
mixture required for the engine by monitoring an applied volt-
age
(5 vdc) to the sensor. The voltage drop across the sensor

I Fuel lniection
varies as the coolant temperature (sensor resistance) chang-
es.
NOTE-
The ECT sensor is an NTC (negative temperature coeff-
cient) type sensor. In other words, as the temperature rises,
resistance through the sensor decreases.
If the ETC sensor input is faulty or non-plausible, the MILis il-
luminated when OBD
II fault criteria are exceeded. The ECM
assumes a substitute value
(8OoC/176"F) to maintain engine
operation. The ignition timing is set to a
conservativelsafe ba-
sic setting.
4 Disconnect ECT sensor harness (A)
- Checlc ECT sensor resistance using a multimeter at sensor
terminals
3 and 4. Peel back protective boot (B) to ID termi-
nal numbers on connector housing.
/ ECT sensor resistance @l 2O" C (68°F) 2.2 - 2.7 kd
WARNING -
Due to risk of personal injug be sure the engine is cold be-
fore disconnecting ECT harness connector.
Sensor replacement: Disconnect ECT sensor harness (A).
- Unscrew ECT sensor from cylinder head and install new sen-
sor.
Use new copper sealing washers
when installing sensor.
Replace any lost coolant.

ME 7.2 system overview
The Bosch ME 7.2 system is used on 1999 - 2002 540i mod-
els.
1 4 The ME 7.2 enaine control module (ECM). located on the
l and a combined total of 134 pins.

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
111 (3.3) "rolling code" ISN interface.
Ignition
knock sensors.
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.
4 Use a break-out box for ME 7.2 system testing and diagnosis
at the control module
(break out box set: BMW special tool
