I can't drink beer today but I'll surely come up to help out. Do you have the tools I need?

I have a basic basement set of tools, do you need anything special? When are you planning on coming by.

I don't have an abundance of knowledge about the EWS system but it seems that it does disable the starter via the solenoid.

http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...d.php?t=230946

All the other connection seem fine, I would start trouble shooting there.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful today, we were restricted in many ways.

I hear what you're saying about EWS, but I've got all of the components that should be giving it a go. It's a mystery I guess..

I bypassed the starter again today, it churned, but never turned it over and on. So i'm positve the starter isn't kicking out.

It's going to take a good bit of cranking to build fuel pressure before it fires up.

You might want to see about getting the EWS sorted out at the dealer also.

Cedrick, this may seem kinda obvious but are you sure the EWS module, DME and key chip came from the same vehicle? Also, if it helps, I never disconnected my starter from the engine harness. If you want, I can take a pic of how it's wired up.

I've been thinking the same thing Jess. Ced, call up Tischer and find out how much they want to do it.

I used everything from my donor car, also the black box connecting to the key-ring and it started immidiately. No problems at all.
