testing and replacing
Disconnect harness connector from intake air temperature
sensor
(A) at air filter housing.
Turn ignition on. Using a digital voltmeter, check for
5 volts
between supply voltage wire in connector and ground.
If volt-
age is not present, test ECM
inputs/outputs as described lat-
er.
With harness connector disconnected, test resistance across
sensor terminals. If any faults are found, replace IAT sensor.

Auxiliary throttle valve (ADS)
(M62 and M62 TU engine), replacing
ADS components 540i models with ASC and DSC are fitted with a motor-driv-
en auxiliary throttle valve and housing ahead of the standard Throttle position switch throttle housing. The ADS throttle valve controls engine throt-
tle intervention based on signals from the DME control mod-
ule if road conditions, such as slipping driven wheel, warrant
reduced engine power.
ADS throttle housing
Bowden cable NOTE-
Before replacing the ADS throttle housing, read DME fault
ADS lhroltle actualor codes.
- ADS throttle housing replacement:
Switch off ignition and disconnect electrical connector on
ADS throttle body.
Remove hose from idle control valve.
Loosen hose clamps and remove throttle housing air in-
take boot.
Disconnect cable from ADS throttle body.
- Unscrew 3 bolts and remove ADS throttle body.
Installation is reverse of removal.
- Adjust cable so that no free play is present.

Brakes
- Pump brake pedal a few times to reduce vacuum in brake
booster. This makes removal of
check valve easier.
- Remove or loosen hose clamp(s) at check valve.
- Disconnect hoses. Remove valve to test or replace.
NOTE-
If valve is pressed into grommet in vacuum booster, pry it out
carefully.
- Reinstall valve using new hose clamps
NOTE-
Install the valve so that the molded arrow is pointing toward
the intake manifold.

CAUTIO&
All E39 vehicles sold in the USA are equipped with Antiloclc
Braking System (ABS) and either Automatic Stability Control
(ASC) or Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). In order for the
bralchg and stability controls to work properk if brake fluid
lines are disconnected and reconnected,
male sure that the
brake system is bled by an authorized BMW dealer or other
qualified repair facility using the BMW Service Tester: See
Brake Bleeding earlier in this group.
- Disconnect negative (-) cable from battery.
I CAUTION- I
Prior to disconnecting the battery read the battery discon-
nection cautions given in
001 General Cautions and
I Warnings. I
- Remove bralte master cylinder as described earlier.
- Disconnect engine vacuum hose from bralte booster.

ABS COMPONENT REPLACEMENT
CA UTIOW-
If the tires on the car are of different makes, the ABS/trac-
tion controlsystem may overreact. Only fit tires of the same
make and treadpattern.
In adverse conditions, such as trying to rock the car out
of deep snow or other soft surface, or when snow
chains are fitted, it is advisable to switch off traction
control and allow
tlie car driveline to operate conven-
tionally.
All E39 vehicles are equipped with
Antilock Braking System
(ABS). Early production models featured ABS with Automatic
Stability Control (ABS
I ASC). Later models came equipped
with ABS and Dynamic Stability Control (ABS
/ DSC). This
manual will refer to these systems as ABS. ASC or DSC will
be specified when necessary.
For ABS system and component descriptions, see
300 Sus-
pension, Steering and Brakes-General.

- Raise applicable end of car.
Make sure that the car is firmly supported on
jack stands de-
signed for the purpose. Place
jack stands beneath structural
chassis points. Do not place jack stands under suspension
< Front sensor: Unscrew mounting bolts (arrows) at steering
knuckle.
4 Rear sensor: Unscrew mounting bolt (arrows) in rear wheel
bearing carrier.
NOTE-
ABS wheelspeed sensor application may vary depending on
traction control system installed.

Brakes
The procedure for removing the ABS I ASC or ABS I DSC hy-
draulic unit is similar for all models. The unit is located at the
right rear of the engine compartment.
- Using a clean syringe, empty brake fluid reservoir.
CAUTION-
Brake fluid is highly corrosive and dangerous to the environ-
ment. Dispose of it
properiw
4 Disconnect electrical harness connector (A) at hydraulic unit
(1998 DSC hydraulic unit in V-8 model shown).
Where applicable, detach electrical harness connector to
DSC pressure sensor.
Mark brake lines
(arrows) in relation to their placement on
hydraulic unit. Detach lines from unit using appropriate
sized flare wrench.
Seal open brake fluid lines and bores with suitable plugs to
prevent contamination.
- Carefully push aside brake lines from retainerslgrommets
that may be in the way of hydraulic unit removal. Use care not
to
kink brake lines.
- Remove hydraulic unit mounting screws. Remove hydraulic unit.
- If necessary, separate hydraulic unit from control module.
- Installation is reverse of removal, noting the following:
Check rubber mount for hydraulic unit/control module. Re-
place if damaged.
Make sure all nuts, fluid couplings, thread bores and mat-
ing surfaces are clean.
Avoid bending pins on control module harness connector
when reattaching.
Make sure brake lines are securely seated in grommets
before installing brake lines in hydraulic unit bores.
