Good morning,Check this out.My ex is trying to leave cali with my daughter. When we divorced 6 years ago she got main sole custody and i got every other weekend with 500.00 child support.Well my daughter is 13 going on 14 this year. My ex got fired from her job in sept last year and her boyfriend quit his to start a business with no money after she got fired wtf?She is in debet bad. Any ways she wants to pull her outta school and move to arizona.My daughter doesnt want to go and her mom is telling her tuff,to bad,nothing can be done.She doesnt like the boyfriend either.I hired a lawyer for my daughters and my rights in this matter. She sleeps on a box spring and matteres on the floor.We filed yesterday and the courts accepted it,the hearing is tomorrow. My mom and i offered her to go to arizona (my ex) to better her self and i would pay her child support still even though my daughter is here and my mom would continue to take her to school untill june. She said no,you dont have a say and nothing can be said or done till she's 18. Well i am going to try and change that,its my job as a dad and parent to do so. I am not just going to roll over this time. Its my turn to fight,and i am going for full custody of my daughter and let her voice be heard with what she wants to do now.I made a promise to her that she could and i am going to keep it. This is all about what my daughter wants.My ex told me this last thursday and she wants to leave this sunday.

I'm sorry to hear I wish you the very best for you and your daughter. My brother has been fighting his battle with his ex for his son for years now...it's not easy or cheap...The courts are heavily biased and for father's it's just all the more difficult.

green/blk wire goes where?

Green/black is normally grounded through the starter to enable accessories.
When you crank, it gets battery voltage, which causes the unloaders to cut power to the rest of the car.

The starter circuit is pretty simple. Just have to check everything with a multimeter.

i tried that. i used a extra wire as a jumper and no luck

Also, what do you have the black/yellow connected to?

[cyberkaa]

Also, I think my black/yellow wire was on the tab below that big positive lug, but I haven't looked at it in a while and your starter looks slightly different.

Jeebus, child custody stuff can get ugly. Good luck mang!

And compression testers are like $30. I got one, used it a bunch of times--it's nice to have around when you keep buying beaters. Is a leakdown test really that much of an improvement over a standard compression test?

compression tester from where harbor frieght? Isn't that one missing the fitting needed for bmw engine's?

[ethrtyiS]

harbor frieght one works perfectly. nothing is missing iirc.

Most BMW engines have a standard 14mm spark plug thread. The HF tester I got covers 3 sizes anyway, so you can do 12mm motors like S54s, too.

dont forget to but the grn/blk where the blk/yellow goes at the green while countering the blk/yellow with the yellw/blk and trade the grn/blk with the yellow.
