NO start

[gregslow318i]

lol same hear just fownd another dme for $50 on cl but I know mine is good I just can figer it out

[416stroker]

Would it not start if i didnt have coolant in. Is there any safties like that built in the dme.

[gregslow318i]

does any one know if the cps gets voltage on start up? and how much and what pin?

[416stroker]

Ok I think my DME is bad I have power in all the correct pins at the dme. Is there anything else besides the cps that could keep my car from starting on a 92 nonvanos engine.

[416stroker]

found out the problem today my computer is toast.A lot of hot spots in the bored an now its fucked. So if any one has a 402 dme laying around hit me up

[gregslow318i]

hmm that does not help me why did it go bad or did some one sell you a bad one? also I have a dme out of a 525i non vaose car same as the 402 but a different chip I think I may have a bad harness

[416stroker]

ya the guy i got all my stuff from told me it was good be he didnt know for sure it was in his shop for a while. You sure you got all of your grounds right?

[gregslow318i]

yeah all my grounds are good it is like the dme is not seeing the crank signal or something that is not letting it fire

[gregslow318i]

so a little update
I have swaped a know running m50 nv e36 harness in and I am have the same issue
but I have discover something
if I have the cam and crank sensors plugs swaped the car will back fire and spuder but if the are installed correctly it will sill on start via no spark and the the fuel injectors and event the pump will not turn on? so I am kinda at a loss

[gregslow318i]

well another update turns out when I have them swapped backwards and it back fires think that in fact they are in the right position and that the cam sensor is making it back fire
does anyone know what the symptoms of a bad cam sensor are ?
