Fuel Injection I
The PWG potentiometers provide DC voltage signals as in-
put to the ME 7.2 control module for throttle and idle control
functions. Potentiometer signal
1 is the primary signal, poten-
tiometer 2 is used for a plausibility cross-check.
1. Potentiometer 1 ground
2. Potentiometer
1 power
3. Potentiometer 2 ground
4. Potentiometer 2 power
5. Potentiometer 1 signal to ECM
6. Potentiometer 2 signal to ECM
If errors are detected between potentiometer
1 and 2, the
ECM calculates the engine intake air mass (from
MAFsensor
signal) and only utilizes the potentiometer signal that closely
matches the detected
intake air mass. The ECM control mod-
ule uses the air mass signal for a comparative source to pro-
vide fail-safe operation.
If the ECM cannot calculate a
plausible conclusion from the monitored potentiometerthe
EDK motor is switched off and fuel injection cut-out is activat-
ed (no fail-safe operation possible).
EDK is continuously monitored during all phases of engine
operation. If faults are detected, the EDK motor is switched off
and fuel injection cut off is activated. The engine continues to
run extremely roughly at idle speed.
EDK adaptation
When the EDK throttle assembly is replaced, the adaptation
values of the previous EDK must be cleared from the ME 7.2
ECM using the BMW service testeroran equivalentscan tool.
Once the old adaptation values have been cleared, the new
EDK assembly should be installed and adapted as follows:
0 Switch ignition OFF for 10 seconds.
* Switch ignition ON. Afler approximately 30 seconds, the
EDK is briefly activated indicating that the replacement unit
is now adapted to the ME 7.2 system.
NOTE-
This EDK adaptation procedure is also necessary after re-
placing the
ME 7.2 engine control module. However, the ad-
aptation values do not require clearing since they have not
yet been established.
ECM relay, testing
The engine control module (ECM) relay is energized via the
ECM and supplies battery positive
(B+) power to many of the
engine management components and subsystems. If this re-
lay is faulty, the engine will not start.
NOTE-
The ECM relay is also referred to as the DME main relay
