1998 318ti not cranking Hi everyone, I am new here. I am having problems with my 1998 318ti with automatic transmission. Just last week, my car would not crank. At first, I thought it would be the starter but I could jump the starter and it would crank. So after reading all the information that i can I think I have narrowed it down to the ews2 module. I have tested all the fuses and they are good but I am not getting power through the fuel pump fuses at all. I have tried to bypass the ews2 starter kill by connecting wire 1 and 3 and now it cranks but still wont start. So I have also tried spraying starting fluid into the intake while cranking and still it wont start. This leads me to believe that I am not getting spark. I think the ews2 module is diabling my starter, fuel, and ignition. Since my vehicle is obd2 I cant do a full ews bypass without flashing the DME. Is there any other way to check the individual components like the antenna ring, key transponder, receiver/transmitter with a code reader. Any input is welcomed. |
