Make sure you have the ground on the front of the motor coming from the fuel rail area.. Pretty sure thats the injector ground

M50 motors use any Bosch/Siemens injector...
The 24# injectors we got higher impedance then the ECU would fire, we swapped them out with injectors of the proper impedance and it started right up.

I really hate digging up old threads but does anyone know what the wire he is holding goes to? It seems to be unheard of, as this is the only thing I can find even showing it exists. Its a brown wire with an orange strip on it coming from the wire harness. I need to know what to do with this wire.Comment

brown with an orange stripe will be a ground wire. There's a grounding post on the passenger side strut tower, put it there.
Just make sure it's not really a red wire that has faded brown, or all the magic smoke will leak out of your harness. :pComment

Is there any proof anywhere on this or a way to check outside of stripping the wiring harness?Comment

99.999999% sure its a ground. I've touched many harnesses and spent hundreds of hours studying BMW wiring diagrams - if that isn't a ground, I'd be shocked.
You can always test it with a multimeter, using a known ground pin of course (brown or brown with an orange stripe)Comment

That's what i thought just haven't got a chance to test it yet. I'll do that when I get back to it. Thanks againComment

Is the red wire circled in orange the engine harness main power supply?Comment
