I Fuel Injection ldle speed control valve,
testing and replacing
ldle speed is maintained by the ECM through the idle speed
control valve. The idle control function compensates for en-
gine load and engine operating conditions. ldle speed is
adaptive through the ECM and no adjustments can be made.
Before checking valve, confirm that throttle position sensor is
working correctly.
NOTE-
The test given below is an electrical check only. It does not
check the mechanical operation of the valve. If the valve is
sticking, hanging up or is sluggish in operation, substituting a
Inown good valve is the best way to check it.
With engine running, check that idle speed control valve is
buzzing.
Turn on
AIC or shift car into drive. ldle should remain steady
or increase slightly.
If valve is not buzzing, or if idle decreases in step above, stop
engine and disconnect harness connector from valve.
4 Check resistance of valve across its terminals. Test values
are listed below.
ldle speed control valve coil resistance
Terminals
1 and 2 20 +2%
Terminals 2 and 3 20 +2Q
Terminals 1 and 3 40 +4%
NOTE-
If you suspect an intermittent fault, lightly tap the valve while
testing resistance.
With valve harness connector disconnected, check for bat-
tery voltage at redlwhite wire in connector with ignition on.
If . ~~ ~~
there is no voltage, check wiring between connector and 7 ECM relay. See ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams.
NOTE- - The idle speed control valve receivespositive (+) battery volt-
age from the ECM (DME main) relay

- If voltage is present as described above, check wiring be-
tween ECM and valve. If no wiring faults are found, check
ECM signal to valve.
- When replacing idle speed control valve, clean and inspect
all sealing areas.
. Inspect sealing ring in throttle body and replace if neces-
sary.
Throttle position sensor (TPS),
testing and replacing
The throttle position sensor (arrow) is mounted on the side
of the primary throttle housing and is directly connected to
the throttle valve shaft. The ECM sends a voltage signal to
the potentiometer-type sensor and monitors the voltage that
comes back. Resistance decreases (voltage increases) as
the throttle opens.
NOTE-
Do not confuse the TPS on the primary throttle housing with
the throttle switch on the
ASC secondary throttle housing.
4 Check throttle position sensor function by disconnecting har-
ness connector and checking across terminals. If any faults
are found, replace throttle position sensor.
Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor,
testing and replacing
Throttle position sensor (M62 engine)
The ECT sensor is located on the front of the engine in the
coolanVthermostat flange.The ECTsensor is a dual tempera-
ture sensor. One circuit provides coolant temperature infor-
mation to the ECM while the other circuit provides coolant
temperature information to the instrument cluster.
The ECM determines the correct ignition timing and
airlfuel
mixture required for the engine by monitoring an applied volt-
age
(5 vdc) to the sensor. The voltage drop across the sensor

varies as the coolant temperature (sensor resistance) chang-
es.
NOTE-
The ECT sensor is an NTC (negative temperature coeff-
cient) type sensor. In other words, as the temperature rises,
resistance through the sensor decreases.
If the ETC sensor input is faulty or non-plausible, the MILis il-
luminated when OBD
II fault criteria are exceeded. The ECM
assumes a substitute value
(8OoC/176"F) to maintain engine
operation. The ignition timing is set to a
conservativelsafe ba-
sic setting.
4 Disconnect ECT sensor harness (A)
- Checlc ECT sensor resistance using a multimeter at sensor
terminals
3 and 4. Peel back protective boot (B) to ID termi-
nal numbers on connector housing.
/ ECT sensor resistance @l 2O" C (68°F) 2.2 - 2.7 kd
WARNING -
Due to risk of personal injug be sure the engine is cold be-
fore disconnecting ECT harness connector.
Sensor replacement: Disconnect ECT sensor harness (A).
- Unscrew ECT sensor from cylinder head and install new sen-
sor.
Use new copper sealing washers
when installing sensor.
Replace any lost coolant.

Intake air temperature
([AT) sensor,
testing and replacing
Disconnect harness connector from intake air temperature
sensor
(A) at air filter housing.
Turn ignition on. Using a digital voltmeter, check for
5 volts
between supply voltage wire in connector and ground.
If volt-
age is not present, test ECM
inputs/outputs as described lat-
er.
With harness connector disconnected, test resistance across
sensor terminals. If any faults are found, replace IAT sensor.

Auxiliary throttle valve (ADS)
(M62 and M62 TU engine), replacing
ADS components 540i models with ASC and DSC are fitted with a motor-driv-
en auxiliary throttle valve and housing ahead of the standard Throttle position switch throttle housing. The ADS throttle valve controls engine throt-
tle intervention based on signals from the DME control mod-
ule if road conditions, such as slipping driven wheel, warrant
reduced engine power.
ADS throttle housing
Bowden cable NOTE-
Before replacing the ADS throttle housing, read DME fault
ADS lhroltle actualor codes.
- ADS throttle housing replacement:
Switch off ignition and disconnect electrical connector on
ADS throttle body.
Remove hose from idle control valve.
Loosen hose clamps and remove throttle housing air in-
take boot.
Disconnect cable from ADS throttle body.
- Unscrew 3 bolts and remove ADS throttle body.
Installation is reverse of removal.
- Adjust cable so that no free play is present.
