If testing shows low oil pressure, one or more of the following
conditions may be indicated:
Worn or faulty oil pump or faulty pump pressure relief valve
Worn or damaged engine bearings
Severe engine wear
Any of these conditions indicate the need for major repairs.
Oil pressure warning system, testing
4 When the ignition is turned on, the oil pressure warning light
comes on. When the engine is started and the oil pressure
rises slightly, the oil pressure switch (arrow) contact opens
and the warning light goes out. Make sure the oil level is cor-
rect before making tests.
- Turn ignition switch on.
- Warning light on instrument panel must light up
- Remove connector from oil pressure switch.
Warning light on instrument panel must go out.
NOTE-
If the light does not go out, the wiring to the switch is most
likely grounded somewhere between the switch terminaland
the warning light See
ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams for
electrical schematics.
- If warning light does not light when ignition is on, remove con-
nector from oil pressure switch and use a jumper wire to
ground connector terminal to a clean metal surface. The oil
pressure warning light should come on.
NOTE-
If there are two wires to the oil pressure switch, ground the
brown/green wire that carries the signal to the warning light.
- If the warning light comes on, check the switch as described
in the next step. If the warning light does not come on, the
wiring to the instrument cluster or to the light itself is faulty.

- Turn ignition off.
Remove coil and inspect coil housing for hairline
cracks or
leaking casting material. Replace any
cracked or leaking coil.
NOTE-
A leaky coil may indicate a faulty Engine Control Module
(ECM). Check ECM before installing a new coil.
CAUTION-
Note location of coilground straps before coil removal; rein-
stall in the same location.

Oxygen sensors, checking
The oxygen sensor provides an input voltage signal [0.2 vdc
(lean) to 0.8 vdc (rich)] to the
ECM based on the oxygen con-
tent in the exhaust gas. To generate voltage, the sensor tem-
perature must exceed 575"
F (300" C). Therefore the sensor
is electrically heated.
NO JE -
The test given below is not a conclusive test of oxygen sen-
sor efficiency and does not test how the oxygen sensor re-
acts to changing conditions. Pin numbers and wire colors
can vary Always check the wiring diagrams to confirm wire
color and pin assignment.
0 The oxygen sensorconnectorplugs are locatednext to the
catalytic converters.
With connector attached to sensor, connect digital voltmeter
between
A and B wires in connector.
WARNING -
Exhaust manifolds andpipes can be hot enough to cause se-
rious burns. Wear suitable heavy gloves and other appropri-
ate protection.
NOJE-
Connector style may vary depending on system application.
Consult wiring diagram for system-specific wiring. See
ELE
Electrical Wiring Diagrams.
Start engine.
A fluctuating voltage signal should show on the
meter.
If voltage is incorrect, turn engine off and check pre-
heater circuit as described below.
NOJE-
To check sensor response to lean and rich mixtures, create
an air leak.
Oxygen sensor

- Connect digital voltmeterbetween sensor heaterwires (white

The oxygen sensor heater is powered via fusedpositive (+)
battery voltage and a switchedground from the ECM. See
ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams for specific circuit informa-
tion.

/Central Locking and Anti-Theft
This section covers repair information for door, trunk and car-
go compartment locks, central locking, electronic
immob~liza-
tion (EWS) and anti-theft alarm (DWA).
€39 cars are equipped with sophisticated self-diagnostic elec-
trical systems. When experiencing malfunctions relating to
central locking. EWS or anti-theft systems, start the diagnosis
process using the
BMW service tester DIS, GT 1, MoDiC or
equivalent scan tool. An advanced diagnostic scan tool can
usually pinpoint electrical faults quickly and safely.
Additional electrical information can be found in:
610 Electrical Component Locations
ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams
Central locking in E39 vehicles controls the door
locks, trunk
or tailgate lock and fuel filler flap lock. The control module for
the Central Body Electronics system (ZKE
Ill), lknown as the
General Module (GM
Ill), controls central locking.
ZKE
Ill manages the following central locking related func-
tions:
Central locking
* Keyless entry
Key memory
Power trunk release
Electric opening of tailgate
DWA alarm system
Diagnosis
General Module
4 The General Module (GM) (arrow) is responsible for the op-
eration of central body electronics. The GM is located behind
the glove compartment.
Based on input information, the GM uses internal transistors
to switch current flow (providing voltage or ground) through
circuits and actuators. Actuators are the final controlling de-
vices used by GM to operate or control various output func-
tions such as relays and motors.
The accompanying schematic, Central locking inputs and
outputs, illustrates the GM central locking system.
