if it has EWS system which i think it does just swap out the antenna (its a black box) where the steering column is and there should be another white box labeled EWS under the glove box with the ones that came with the motor ... put the chip from the motor into your key. that should resolve your issue.
as long as all the grounds and power sources are connected correctly... __________________

s50b28....sounds like a custom setup. Are you OBDI or II? If one, what dme, if two, what dme? If two, get it flashed, if one, use a red labeled dme with corresponding chip, cut ews wire, if starter doesnt engage, bypass ews with large black with yellow strip and black with green strip at EWS box location, it WILL at least turn the starter over. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone
