i recently did an m42 swap to an m40b16 engined e30,
everything works good,
except im stuck in AC idle bump,
couldnt figure out wire, as i checked the WDS e30 and e36 have a totally different way of doing the ac idle bump, plus theres an AC compressor cut off in E36 M42
any idea on this

ok my swap is complete i can say like upto 90%
i currently have only 2 issues left
1. like week after the swap instrument cluster rpm and fuel consumption needles started to work erratic (tried to a different instrument cluster from a another m40 still the same issue)
2. when i connect the icom it doesnt detected, so i dont have any diagnostic capabilities
