Fault

Poor

have
a
variety
of
causes
.
The

may
He
withthe
ignition
system,
the
fuel
system,
parts
ofthe
emission
control
system,
ora
combination
of
thethree
.
Be-
cause
of
these
interrelated
functions
and
their
effects
on
each
other,
it
is
often
difficult
to
know
where
to
begin
looking
for
problems
.
For
this
reason,
effective
troubleshooting
should
always
be-
gin
with
an
interrogation
of
the
On-Board
Diagnostic
(01313)
system
.
The
OBD
system
detects
certain
emissions-related
engine
management
malfunctions
.
When
faults
are
detected,the

In

Warnings
and
Cautions
For
personal
safety,
as
well
as
the
protection
of
sensitive
electronic
components,
the
following
warnings
and
cautions
should
be
adhered
to
when
working
on
the
engine
manage-
ment
system
.
GENERAL
WARNING
-
"
The
ignition
system
produces
high
voltages
that
can
be
fatal
.
Avoid
contact
with
exposed
termi-
nals
.
Use
extreme
caution
when
working
onacar
with
the
ignition
switched
on
or
the
engine
run-
ning
.
"
Do
not
touch
or
disconnect
any
high
voltage
ca-
bles
from
the
coils
or
spark
plugs
while
the
engine
is
running
or
beingcranked
by
the
starter
.
"
Connect
and
disconnect
the
DME
system
wiring
and
test
equipment
leads
only
when
the
ignition
is
switched
off
.
"
Gasoline
is
highly
flammable
and
fts
vaporsare
explosive
.
Do
not
smoke
or
work
on
a
car
near
heaters
or
other
fire
hazards
when
diagnosing
and
repalring
fuel
system
problems
.
Have
a
tire
extinguisher
avaílable
in
case
of
an
emergency
.
"
When
working
onan
open
fuel
system,
wear
suit-
able
hand
protection,
asprolonged
contact
wfth
fuel
can
cause
illnesses
and
skin
disorders
.
"
Renew
fuel
system
hoses,
clamps
and
O-rings
any
timethey
are
removed
.
"
Before
makingany
electrical
tests
that
require
the
engine
to
be
cranked
using
the
starter,
disable
the
ignition
system
as
described
in
120
Ignition
System
.
CAUTION-
"
Prior
to
disconnecting
the
battery,
read
the
bat-
tery

cautions
given
at
the

equipment
that
delivers
a
12-volt
power
supply
to
terminal

(+)
of
the
ig-
nitioncoil
.
The
current

In
general,
connect
test
equipment
only
as
speclfied
by
BMW,
this
manual,
or
the
equipment
maker
.
