regular old m60 swap

You need to hook up the power wire, that's how the DME gets power. Nothing will work correctly without it. You probably shouldn't be trying to fire it up without everything connected the way it should be, that's how things get fried.

In this picture, it's the ring terminal laying on top of the white relay:

There's some backwards ass shit going on.

My CEL doesn't come on on my cluster as well.

I've officially grounded both ends, and there is even less power coming out of the relays. . I also cannot seem to find the dme power wire.

[dothadance]

im going to check that in just a second. im just super confused right now, because i was getting like 10.3V on all of the wires on the relays, and then when i grounded that smaller lug it made the power at the relays drop to 4V. and like i was saying, that second wire i just posted is also reading positive power. the same as whats at the relays. i guess i have a short somewhere

[JGood]

That's another ground. I attached mine to my firewall, just drilled a hole and bolted it on.

Do you have the DME power wire hooked up? It's a red wire with the same type of round lug connector at the end. That goes to your small fused battery cable, which runs parallel to your main big battery cable.

[dothadance]

and I'm getting power to all of the wires coming out of the relays except for the wires for the pump. Bad relays?

[dothadance]

How about this one? Its getting 12v. Could this be why I'm not getting fuel?

[JGood]

That connector definitely looks like the ground that's in that area of the harness. On mine, it connects to the coolant manifold, a few sensors use it as ground. You can even tell that it's previously been attached by the marks on it.

[dothadance]

Good news is my pump is good so I don't have to buy another one. Bad news is its not getting 12v. Bleh.

I can tell you that it is wrapped up on all m60 e34 cars and unused. I don't know what it is for, but from the factory it is just sitting there on the frame rail doing nothing.

Sweet. Couldn't find anything on it so I figured it was just another unused connector. Thanks.

Also, if someone could help me figure out what this little terminal is that would be killer.
Ground? 12v? It exits at the passenger rear of the motor.

Figured out I'm not getting any fuel whatsoever.
Now we get to play the game of finding out if its my pump or my wiring.

I hope you're able to get it to fire tomorrow man. I'm getting closer every day myself....
