has this ecu immo surely????i think this ecu hasnt got

[Larue]

Don't know about immo on these, but some of BMW use camshaft sensor as main engine speed recognition sensor and crankshaft sensor only as reference sensor(systems like Siemens 41). They are running and starting without crank sensor, but wont start without cam sensor.
I would fit new cam sensor before go any forward.

my ecu is 40.1 and not ms 41

[Larue]

No. Couple days ago i had one e39 with MS41 engine management system with poor starting problem. Found completely dead crank sensor(Hall sensor).
Have seen this before, just can't remember now on which models.

[d.zio]

i will check it mate

as far as i know 5wk9002 has no immo ....

What does the key look like? The early laser cut keys have no transponder chip inside, hence no ews

[nutloose]

if it is EWS immobilised it will not crank (std wiring)
earlier drive away protection would crank
cut /paste

early drive away protection 1993.

Principle of Operation
When the vehicle is locked from the outside, a High signal is sent to the GM from the door lock switch.
The GM receives this High signal and outputs a High signal to the DME.
The circuit from the GM is spliced into an existing circuit from the BC to the DME.
A High signal from the GM (or BC) causes the DME to cancel the fuel and spark functions to the engine resulting in a no-start condition.
The vehicle must be unlocked with the key or the code function of the BC cancelled for the DME to allow engine operation.
