- As an alternative, harness connector housing can be sepa-
rated so that electrical
checlts can be made from backof con-
nector.
4 If replacing ECM, disconnect control module harness con-
nector (arrow) by releasing fastener and pivoting connector
up and
off ECM.
CAUTION-
Be sure ignition is OFF before disconnecting or reconnecting
DME system components.
- Remove ECM from retaining brackets and lift off holder.
- Installation is reverse of removal.
- Before attempting to start engine, use BMW service tester
DISplus, MoDiC, GTI or equivalent:
- Code replacement ECM with application information (i.e.
engine code, transmission type, etc.).
Align ECM to EWS (electronic immobilizer).
Siemens MS 41.1 ECM pin assignments
ECM pin assignments are given in Table b. For engine man-
agement system schematics, see ELE Electrical Wiring
Di-
agrams.
CAUTION-
a Always wait at least one minute after turning off the ignition
before removing the connector from the
ECM. If the con-
nector is removed before this time, residual power
in the
system relay may damage the
ECM.
Always connect or disconnect the control module con-
nector and meter probes with the ignition
off
When malting checks at the ECM itself, a breakout box
should be used to allow tests to be made with the connector
attached to the ECM. This also prevents damage to the small
terminals in the connector. As an alternative, the harness
connector housing can be separated so that electrical checlts
can be made from the back of the connector.

ECM Relay
4 Check for voltage at terminal 6 (30) at reiay socket
If battery voltage is present continue testing.
if battery voltage is not present, check fuse 109 (80-amp
fusible link) under passenger seat carpet. See 610 Electri-
cal
Component Locations.
- Reinstall relay and turn ignition on. Gain access to back side
of reiay socket and check for ground at terminal
4.
If ground is present continue testing.
If ground is not present, signal
from ECM is missing. Check
wire between ECM and relay.
- With ignition on and reiay installed, check lor battery voltage
at terminal
2.
If battery voltage is present, relay has energized and is
functioning correctly.
If battery voltage is not present and
ail earlier tests are OK,
relay is faulty and should be replaced.
NOTE-
If no faults are found during testing but power is not reaching
the ECM or other components, check the fuses
in the fuse
carrier
X8680 in the E-box.
Mass air flow (MAF) sensor, checking and
replacing
4 The hot f~lm mass air flow (MAF) sensor sends a varying volt-
age (approx. 0.5 - 4.5 vdc) to the ECM representing the mea-
sured
Intake air. The alr mass input signal is produced
electron~caily uslng an electrically heated metal fllm in the air
flow stream.
The ECM relay provides the operating voltage to the MAF
sensor. As air
flows through the sensor, the film is cooled. To
maintain the film at a constant temperature, additional current
is necessary. It is this additional current that is the basis lor
the input signal.
If there is no output signal from the MAF sensor, the ECM op-
erates the engine using the throttle position and engine rpm
inputs. A faulty MAF sensor illuminates the MIL.

Fuel Injection
A faulty MAF sensor can produce the following problems:
Difficult to restart when engine is hot
Engine starts then stalls
* Engine starts and runs only with accelerator pedal de-
pressed
4 Disconnect electrical harness connector from MAF sensor
(B).
- Turn ignition on and checlc for voltage and ground at connec-
tor.
There should be ground at pin
1 and battery voltage at pin
3.
- If any faults are found, checlc for wiring breaks between
MAF sensor and ECM and between MAF sensor and main
DME relay.
NOTE-
Visually inspect the sensor for damage, missing or blocked
screens. The screens affect air flow calibration. Also inspect
the sealina
0-rinas where the sensor inserts into the air filter - - housing and intake boot. Ensure the pin connections are
clean and tight.
4 Connect a BMW-compatible scan tool or an OED II generic
scan tool.
Checlc air mass signal (load signal) with the engine
at idle. Raise idle speed and
checlc that load signal changes
with rpm.
CAUTION-
Be sure ignition is OFFbefore disconnecting or reconnecting
DME system components.
Remove MAF sensor:
Loosen intake boot clamp
(A).
Disconnect harness connector (6).
* Release clip from air filter housing (C) and remove sensor.
- Installation is reverse of removal.
No adjustment to MAF sensor is possible.
Check intake hoses for cracks and vacuum
lealts.

- Installation is reverse of removal:
Use new copper sealing washers when installing sensor.
Replace any lost coolant.

Intake air temperature (IAT) sensor,
testing and replacing
4 The intake airtemperature (IAT) sensor, located at the top of
I the intake manifold, adapts (fine tunes) the fuel mixture and i
T engine timing based on varying intake air temperatures.

I exceeded. The ECM then operates the engine using the ECT
