I bought these items to troubleshoot my 1998 BMW 318. I finally found out that the original ECU (DME) is not burned out and installed it back. These items proved that there were other issues with the car and replaced it. When I installed these items, the car run after I replaced those other issues. The car is running now. If you have a bad ECU (DME) and want to replace it, you must align with the EWS in able to work and this is the easies and cheapest way to do it. Just replace the ECU and EWS plus the key chip. I guarantee these items works. Make sure your car DME matches this donor DME (1 430 105). If you are interested, please PM me and we will discuss the cost, etc. Thank you. Here are the most common symptoms of a bad ECU 1. Check Engine Light stays on after resetting 2. Car was jump started on reverse polarity 3. Engine turning off for no reason 4. Water Damage or Fire Damage on the ECU 5. Apparent loss of spark 6. Apparent loss of injection pulse or fuel pump 7. If your alternator overcharged the battery 8. Intermittent starting problems 9. Overheating ECU 10. ECU has Broken Pins 11. Loss of communication between the ECU and the Scanner 12. A control module memory checksum error Many other symptoms may occur that can drastically lead to an ECU failure such as: 1. Erratic idle 2. Stalling 3. Poor running condition 4.

I could jump the starter by applying 12v to the starter terminal and jumping it by applying 12v into the blk/yellow wire at the ews2 module but it still will not turn over. | | | 01-13-2015, 04:49 PM | #8 | Junior Member Join Date: Jan 2015 Location: san jose, ca Posts: 12 | I have also tested the fuses and it seems that the fuse for the fuel pump also has no power. Ive tried spraying starting fluid into the intake but it still not running so I am assuming that I am not getting spark also. As a result I think the ews2 module is disabling my starter, fuel, and spark. | | | 01-13-2015, 04:50 PM | #9 | Junior Member Join Date: Jan 2015 Location: san jose, ca Posts: 12 | It seems like that our dme is identical but the ews2 module has a different number. do you think that will be a problem? | | | 01-13-2015, 05:02 PM | #10 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2014 Location: Hawaii Posts: 114 | I bought the car with the issue of will not start (it crank but will not start) and the previous owner troubleshot to replaced the fuel pump relay but he replaced with wrong relay and burn some wires. There's no spark at the plugs, no fuel coming from the fuel pump but it works when override the fuel pump relay. At first when I troubleshot, I thought the original DME was fried, so I decided to replaced the DME/EWS/Key chip but the car still will not start. During the course of my troubleshooting, I replaced the crankshaft position sensor and the car start. After the car running, I decided to reinstalled back the original DME/EWS/Key chip, and it works. So, I knew these items I am selling are serviceable because it works in my car. | | | 01-13-2015, 05:11 PM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2014 Location: Hawaii Posts: 114 | Quote: Originally Posted by ha0tang It seems like that our dme is identical but the ews2 module has a different number. do you think that will be a problem? | I am not sure but I know the DME/EWS/Key chip (transponder) should be programed together in able the car to start. But it's not bad to try with the same DME from your's and the donor DME. | | | 01-13-2015, 05:45 PM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2014 Location: Hawaii Posts: 114 | The DME have the signal ground most of the components such as to power the fuel pump and the coil pack. So, if the DME is dead, then these components will not getting power. | | | 01-13-2015, 06:00 PM | #13 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2014 Location: Hawaii Posts: 114 | Bypass EWS | | | 01-13-2015, 06:15 PM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2014 Location: Hawaii Posts: 114 | Quote: Originally Posted by ha0tang since i need a couple more post, then let me ask what was wrong with your vehicle? | I am sending the DME/EWS information to your e-mail address. | | | 01-14-2015, 12:06 AM | #15 | Junior Member Join Date: Jan 2015 Location: san jose, ca Posts: 12 | Just tried your procedure from above with ews bypass, It now cranks but does not start.
