Did you also look http://shark.armchair.mb.ca/~dave/BMW/e30/e30_91.pdf here? That document is the diff for 318s, basically.

a little but its all confusing, why isnt there just a definitive pinout chart like how hard could that be?

[Jean]

Because there are various of changes between years/models? How hard can it be, spend 30 minutes with the ETM and you'll know for sure.

[nmlss2006]

What he said. The pinout is a bitch, yes, because you have to go all over the 318 ETM which I linked to AND the 89 325 ETM to make sure you get all the pins. I have the pinout for a late model 6 cyl but I am purposefully not posting it to avoid potential disasters, as several sources confirm that the 318iS is different.

I posted it in the m30 section before, look around there.

Yeah, you might as well go through the ETM for you car. If you can get a hold of a searchable PDF, just hit CTRL+F and type in C101, then write down every hit you get, and see what you come up with.

If you don't have a searchable PDF though, it still isn't that hard.

[ZekeTheSneak]

thanks, i made a spreadsheet with a bunch that i have found to compare my findings, i will go through the etm tonight

[Garageaholic]

Yeah, The ETM will help very much. The schematics really work wonders. Just go through EACH page and look for a C101 connection!

[ZekeTheSneak]

fml, lol. hopefuly running tonight

[ZekeTheSneak]

oh these schematics are ok, i take it 88 and 90 are major years.

[ZekeTheSneak]

I believe i found my problem, between the two years the 91 ignition is controlled by different relays and my car still wont start. any insight?

bump - anyone have a *complete* '91 318is ETM? the one floating around (~5.9mb) is missing about 2/3rds of the sections. Which is funny when you guys tell somebody to search the ETM. ;)

I know there's a 16mb version but I haven't found it yet..

[nmlss2006]

Nando, as far as I know the 91 318iS etm that is 'small' is the diff from the 89 325 one. So you get to have two PDFs open.. ask me how I know :).
