So my S52 swap lives! Only issue I can tell is that the Tach/MPG is dead. 1990 325i convertible
In order to get the car to start post swap, I had to bypass the OBC immobilizer, as found here:
and here:
So far:
I can't seem to get any voltage from the tach signal when the car is running, maybe a little but very small. My multimeter is very basic and I have seen a few different mentions of how to test it the tach signal. Can someone share with me exactly what to do to test that the ECU is actually outputting a tach signal? I can't believe the ECU would suddenly stop sending this. I have to believe it's wiring but I get continuity from pin 36 on the ECU to Pin 7 on the Blue C1 plug on the back of the cluster. So the wiring would have to be correct right?

So far:
- All Fuses checked out
- Tach signal wired properly from DME; continuity all the way from ECU pin to back of cluster
- Replaced SI Batteries, overall board looks good
- Installed known working cluster into my car and same exact behavior
