Battery, Starter, ~lternatorl
Charging system quick-check
Use a digital multimeter to measure voltage across the bat-
tery terminals with key off and then again with engine running.
Battery voltage should be about 12.6 volts with key off and be-
tween 13.5 and 14.5 volts with engine running.
NOTE-
The regulated voltage (engine running) should be between
13.2 and 14.5, depending on temperature andoperating con-
ditions.
If the voltage is higher than 14.8, the voltage regula-
tor or
mulitfunction controller is most likely faulty
Check for clean and tight battery cables. Check ground cable
running from negative
(-) battery terminal to chassis and
ground cable running from engine to chassis. Check alterna-
tor drive belt condition and tension.

* Do not disconnect the battery while the engine is running.
Damage to the alternator and/or engine electronic systems
may result.
Only use a digital multimeter when testing charging

I Battery, Starter, Alternator
- Check for battery voltage at terminal 50 of starter motor with
key in start position. If voltage is not present, check wiring be-
tween ignition switch and starter terminal. Check the EWS
system and other inputs that disrupt terminal
56 to the start-
er. See ELE Electrical
Wiring Diagrams. If voltage is
present and no other visible wiring faults can be found, prob-
lem is most likely in starter motor.
Starter, removing and installing
(6-cylinder engine)
The starter is removed from below. Access to starter bolts is
difficult. Be sure to have the proper tools on hand before pro-
ceeding.
NOTE-
Access to the starter wiring is very limited. Forbetteraccess,
it may be necessary to remove the intake manifold.
- Disconnect negative (-) battery cable.
CAUTIOI\C
Prior to disconnecting the battern read the baltery discon-
nection cautions
in OOlGeneral Cautions and Warnings.
Remove complete air filter hous~ng:
Loosen intake duct hose clamp (A) at throttle assembly.
Loosen clamp and remove idle control hose from intake
duct
(B) and disconnect idle speed control valve electrical

WARNING-
Make sure the car is stable and well supported at all times.
Use a professional automotive
lift orjack stands designed for
the purpose. A
floorjaclc is not adequate support

Fuel Injection I
Mass air flow (MAF) sensor,
checking and replacing
4 The hot film mass air flow (MAF) sensor (arrow) sends a
varying voltage (approx.
0.5 - 4.5 vdc) to the ECM represent-
ing the measured intake air. The air mass input signal is pro-
duced electronically by the
MAFsensorusing a heated metal
film in the air flow stream.
The ECM relay provides the operating voltage to the MAF
sensor. As air flows through the MAF sensor, the film is
-
cooled. To maintain the film at a constant temperature, addi-
tional heating current is necessary. It is this additional current
that is the basis for the input signal.
If there is no output signal from the MAF sensor, the ECM op-
erates the engine using throttle position and engine rpm in-
puts. A faulty MAF sensor illuminates the MIL.
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.
Disconnect electrical harness connector from MAF sensor
(arrow).
- Turn ignition on and check 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, check for wiring breaks between
MAF sensor and ECM and between MAF sensor and ECM
relay.
NOTE-
Visually inspect the sensor for damage, missing or blocked
screens. The screens affect air flow calibration. Also inspect
the sealing O-rings 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 OBD II generic
scan tool. Check air mass signal (load signal) with the engine
at idle. Raise idle speed and check that load signal changes
with rpm.
