OED-2
On-Board Diagnostics
Specialized OED II scan tool equipment is needed to access
the fault memory and
OED I1 data.
The extra hardware needed to operate the OED
I1 system
consists mainly of the following:
* Additional oxygen sensors downstream of the catalytic
converters.
Fuel tank pressure sensor and device to pressurize
fuel
storage system.
Several engine and performance monitoring devices
Standardized 16-pin
OED II connector under the
dashboard.
Upgraded components for the federally required reliability
mandate.
Malfunction indicator light (MIL)
OED II software illuminates the malfunction indicator light
(MIL) when emission levels exceed 1.5 times Federal
standards.
4 For E34 cars covered by this manual, three different MIL
symbols were used, depending on year and model.
MIL illuminates under the following conditions:
Engine management system fault detected for
two
consecutive OED iI drive cycles. See Drive cycle in this
repair group.
- Catalyst damaging fault detected.
Component malfunction causes emissions to exceed 1.5
times OED
II standards.
Manufacturer-defined specifications exceeded. Implausible input signal.
Misfire
faults.
Leak in evaporative system,
Oxygen sensors observe no purge
flow from purge valve 1
evaporative system.
ECM fails to enter closed-loop operation within specified
time.
ECM or automatic transmission control
module (TCM) in
"limp home" mode.
ignition key ON before cranking (bulb
check function).
OED
II fault memory (including the MIL) can only be reset
using a special scan tool. Removing the connector from the
ECM or disconnecting the battery does not erase the fault
memory.

On-Board Diagnostics
Professional diagnostic scan tools available atthe time of this
printing include the BMW factory tools
(DISplus, GTI,
MoDiC) and a small number of aftermarket BMW-specific
tools. See
020 Maintenance.
In addition to the professional line of scan tools, inexpensive
generic OBD
II scan tool software programs and handheld
units are readily available. Though limited, they are
nonetheless powerful diagnostic tools. These tools read live
data streams and freeze frame data as well as a host of other
valuable diagnostic data.
Diagnostic monitors
Diagnostic monitors run tests and checks on specific
emission control systems, components, and functions.
A complete drive cycle is requiredforthe tests to bevalid. See
Drive cycle in this repair group. The diagnostic monitor
signals the
ECM of the loss or impairment of the signal or
component and determines if a signal or sensor is faulty
based on
3 conditions:
* Signal or component shorted to ground
Signal or component shorted to
B+
Signal or component missing (open circuit)
The OBD
II system monitors all emission control systems that
are installed. Emission control systems vary by vehicle model
and year. For example, a vehicle may not be equipped with
secondary air injection, so no secondary air readiness code
would be present.
OBD
II software monitors the following:
Oxygen sensors
Catalysts
Engine misfire
- Fuel tank evaporative control system
Secondary air injection Fuel system
Oxygen sensor monitoring. When driving conditions allow,
response rate and switching time of each oxygen sensor is
monitored. The oxygen sensor heater function is also
monitored. The OBD
II system differentiates between
precataylst and post-catalyst oxygen sensors and reads each
one individually. In order
forthe oxygen sensor to be
effectively monitored, the system must be in closed loop
operation.

On-Board Diagnostics
Catalyst monitoring. Thisstrategy monitors the outputofthe
precatalyst and post-catalyst oxygen sensors, comparing the
oxygen content going into the catalytic converter to the
oxygen leaving the converter.
The diagnostic executive
lknows that most of the oxygen
should be used up during the oxidation phase. If it detects
higherthan programmed values, afault is set and the MIL
illuminates.
Misfire detection. This strategy monitors crankshaft speed
fluctuations and determines if an enoine misfire occurs bv
monitoring variations in speed between each crankshaft
sensortrigger point. This strategy is so finely tuned that it can
determine the severity of the misfire.
The system determines
if a misfire is occurring, as well as
other pertinent misfire
information such as:
Specific
cylinder(s)
Severity of the misfire event
Emissions relevant or catalyst damaging
Misfire detection is an on-going monitoring process that is
only disabled under certain limited conditions.
Secondary air injection monitoring. Secondary air
injection is used to reduce HC and CO emissions during
engine warm up. Immediately following a cold engine start
(-1 0" to 40°C), fresh air (and therefore oxygen) is pumped
directly into the exhaust
manifold. By injecting additional
oxygen into the exhaust manifold, catalyst warm-up time is
reduced.
Secondary air system components are:
Electric air injection pump
* Electric pump relay
* Non-return valve
Vacuum
I vent valve
- Stainless steel air injection pipes
Vacuum reservoir
The secondary air system is monitored via the use
of the pre-
catalyst oxygen sensors. Once the air pump is active and air
is injected into the system, the signal at the oxygen sensor
reflects a lean condition. If the oxygen sensor signal does not
change, a fault is set and the faulty
bank(s) identified. If after
completing the next cold startafault is again present, the MIL
illuminates.

On-Board Diagnostics
Readiness codes indicate whether the OED Ii system is
actually ready to monitor the various emission control
systems on the vehicle. The vehicle must complete a drive
cycle to set readiness codes. The code is binary:
0 for ready
1 for not ready
f
4 The parameters which are monitored for readiness are:
llM readiness codes
1. Catalyst efficiency
2. Catalyst heating
3. Fuel tank evaporative control
4. Secondary air injection
5.
NC refrigerant
6. Oxygen sensors
7. Oxygen sensor heaters
8. Exhaust gas recirculation
Readiness codes are set to 1 (not ready) in the following
cases:

readiness. Readiness codes
can be displayed using BMW
and aftermarket scan tools.
An
OED II scan tool can be used to determine IIM readiness.
Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)
SAE standard J2012 mandates a 5-digit diagnostic trouble
code (DTC) standard. Each digit represents a specific value.
Emission related DTCs
start with the letter P for power train.
When the engine service
light (MIL) is illuminated it indicates
that a DTC has been stored.
DTCs are stored as soon as they occur, whether or not the
engine service light illuminates.
DTCs store and display a time stamp.
DTCs record the current fault status: Present, not currently
present, or intermittent.

DTCs provide a freeze frame or snap-shot of a vehicle
performance or emissions fault at the moment that the fault
first occurs. This information is accessible through generic
OED I1 scan tools.
Freeze frame data contains, but is not limited to, the following
information:
Engine load (calculated)
Engine rpm
Short and
long term fuel trim
Vehicle speed
Coolant temperature Intake manifold pressure
Open/closed loop operation
Fuel pressure (if available)
