A replacement alternator should have the same rating as the
original. Alternator manufacturer and ampere rating are nor-
mally
marked on the alternator housing.
- Disconnect negative (-) battery cable.
CAUTION-
Prior to disconnecting the battery, read the battery discon-
nection cautions
001 General Warnings and Cautions.
- Remove cooling fan and alternator drive belt. See 020 Main-
tenance.
- Pry out trim caps and remove fasteners from plastic cover on
left head. Lift off cover.
Disconnect positive
(+) lead from jump start post (arrow).
Raise car and support in a safe manner.
WARNING-
Make sure the car is stable and well supported at aN times.
Use a professional automotive lift
orjack stands designed for
the purpose.
A floorjack is not adequate support.

cooled alternator.
CAUTION-
Allow engine to cool before removing alternator as coolant
will
escape from the alternator water jacket.
- Disconnect negative (-) battery cable
CAUTION- Prior to disconnecting the
battew read the battery discon-
nection cautions given in
001 General Warnings and Cau-
tions.
- Remove radiator cooling fan and fan shroud. See 170 Radi-
ator and Cooling System.
- Drain engine cooling system. See 170 Radiator and Cool-
ing System.
- Remove alternator drive belt. See 020 Maintenance.
- Disconnect battery lead (terminal 30 or B+) and two-pin har-
ness connector from front of alternator.
I < Remove bolts securing alternator to water jacket and remove

NOTE- If necessary, raise car and remove engine compartment
splash shield to access lower alternator mounting bolts.
The upper coolant hose can also
be removed to assist al-
ternator removal.

STARTER
Starter troubleshooting
Typical starter wiring terminal identification is shown. Large
wire at terminal
30 (not shown in photo) is direct battery volt-
age. Smaller wire at terminal
50 operates starter solenoid via
ignition switch.
If starter turns engine slowly when ignition is in start position:
Check battery state of charge.
Inspect starter wires, terminals, and ground
connectlons
for good contact. In particular, make sure ground connec-
tions between battery, body and
englne are completely
clean and tight.
If no faults are found, starter may be faulty and should be
replaced.
- If starter fails to operate, check EWS (drive-away protection
system). Try another ignition key.
If no faults can be found,
have the EWS system checked using
BMW scan tool equip-
ment.
Checkclutch pedal operated
starter lock-out switch or gear
position switch (automatic).
NOTE-
* A factory-installed drive-away protection system, also re-
ferred to as
EWS, is used on E39 cars. This system pre-
vents operation of the starter if a specially coded ignition
key is not used.
On cars with automatic transmission, the transmission
gear position switch signals
EWS to prevent the engine
from starting in gear positions other than PARK or NEU-
TRAL.
On cars with manual transmissions, a starter immobiliza-
tion switch
at the clutch pedal is used to prevent the starter
from operating unless the clutch pedal is pushed fully to
the floor.

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.
--__-- 1 I. 9 pin connector
12 3 4 5 2 24 pin connector
0lliC;nii, 3. 52 pin connector
4. 40 pin connector
5. 9 pin connector
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
90
88 6 121 300).
Electrically heated (characteristic
map) cooling system
