    Help!! Please Crank No Run Issue! 1987 325I Coil Specs

    Ok Strange Problem! My car was shutting off at random times finally wouldn’t start back up. It cranks but wouldn’t start. So I checked the Crankshaft Position Sensor it’s resistance was varying so installed new one.
    The car still cranks but no start, checked coil no spark; so checked voltage to coil ... none! Remove leads to coil and got 9 volts a previous thread I read stated some only have 8 volt input to coil so I assume once I received 9 volts input that I was good. And most likely bad coil because with the wires screwed down I get 0 volts then. I want to check resistance on primary and secondary but cant find any specifications on what they should be. Its a 1987 325i 2.5 M20 built April 1987 with a Bosch Yellow Label TCI Coil. Any Help would be great, thanks in advance!

    Hi Buddy, here's some troubleshooting guides that will help you get a better understanding of what's going on when your machine tries to fire up, and of course your ETM:



    Just to confirm - you've pulled a spark plug out of engine and put it up against something metal to see if it sparks when you crank it over?
