RE: Help! Anti-Theft dilemma



That should read "will not start", as opposed to "will not start out"...

It has been a frustrating day ;-)

Subject: Help! Anti-Theft dilemma

My e30 (87 325es) will not start out.  The car has never asked me for
codes before, and I have installed a new battery with no trouble, but I
fear that I may have re-connected the anti-theft wiring.

The symptom is absolutely no spark from the coil, or at any plug.  The
car turns over very well, and has been driven daily for a week.  I have
checked voltage at the coil, as well as inspected the position and speed
sensors.

I have no idea what the code may be, as I am the third or fourth owner,
and have never needed it before.  Anyone know any tricks to disable it
or fool it?

Much appreciated!
