Hey again,
After checking every single input pin to the DME, all of them are getting power but pin 64, which is related to the EGS.
The pinout says it's "Ignition timing intervension", is the pin 64 need to get any signal?
May it cause my problem?
I don't know what the check anymore.. I've checked the camshaft sensor, the crankshaft sensor, and all the wires. everything looks ok.

Any ideas?
Thank you!

P.S
The car is a 1988 E30
The engine is M42 E36

Engine management / M42 On E30 not starting after swap

« on: June 03, 2013, 10:10:01 AM »

Hey guys,
I've just swapped a M42 to my E30.
When I try to start the engine, there is cracking but there is no spark and the fuel pump is not working.
The crank sensor is fine.
The ECU is working fine on another M42.
When cracking there is no signal from the DME to the fuel pump realy.
Another thing, we are using an automatic engine harness but the car was manual before.
We went trough every pin on the ECU and everything seems to work fine.

Any help would be helpful 

Thank you very much,

Engine management / Help installing a new engine wiring harness.

« on: March 05, 2013, 06:06:34 AM »

Hello everyone

I bought a M42 engine came without the engine wiring harness.
Since I bought a new engine wiring harness and now I'm trying to install it on the engine without success.
There are so many sensors that can connect several options at the harness
My question is this Is there a diagram or pictures of all the connections of the wiring harness?
I tried to find on the internet without success, and it really frustrates me.

I'd be happy if you can help me

Thanks in advance.
