So i'm working on my buddies 89 325is. His engine and tranny were bad so i swapped in a new motor and tranny. I kept the same harness/computer and everything that was in the car, just swapped the motor. Got everything back together and it won't start. Won't turn over! Dash lights/radio and stuff comes on but thats it. I have power at the 12v distributor box thingy on the passenger side in the bay. I also have power at the starter where the main 12v line comes in from the battery. Tried using a test light on the green wire that goes from the relay to the starter and theres no power there when cranking. The fuel pump also doesn't kick on so that makes me think its a relay or something. If i jumper the fuel pump relay it kicks on so i know its working its just not getting the signal to turn on! Any ideas would be helpful, he's waiting to drive his car again! :)
Also tried swapping a different computer in to no avail!!
