Bring it into me and I'll do it for you. It could be their scanner and I'll also tell you what needs to be done with the airbag fault. Can look at it today if you like. Give me a call Ph.2722546 Cheers Glenn

You may have too problems. I'd try a good battery first and check the charge rate. Should be charging around 14 volts. If it still wont start and the solenoid is clicking it will be a faulty starter motor
-
I would also add... dont buy these...unless yes dont have check control or you want to run them off an independant switch, like weve had to do. They dont fit as per instructions and you can see all the trouble I've had with them. And I've fitted heaps of angel eye headlights before.

I was told the early version cars you cant reset the LCM, you can on later versions and E39 but not E34 and early E38's. If you let them flash the cops would be all over you....saw a Volvo doing it this morning Thanks for trying to help guys
-
If the load gets higher it will probably trip the check control all the time. I've checked with so many of the guys in the know here in Auckland and knowone knows. BMW & All the other BMW repairers

Thanks...the owner has decided to go with the switch. I was hoping Jochen would be on today...no sign of him though. Spent way to much time on this already
-
So he was there...one of the police ??
-
Have you got a police scanner ??
-
Nope...that doesnt work either Back to ignition or toggle switch switching I'm afraid
-
Just had three police cars, about 8 police, 3 dogs and the police helicopter at my place (neighbourhood watch) I rush home with my other neighbour. Cops have got the guy bailed up with the dogs.... its the poor bloody septic tank serviceman....lol the poor guy Anyway.... great response from our Sth Auckland Police
-
The owner supplied the kit.. I dont know where he got it from....Chinese I suppose I think my above solution will work
-
I think this will work Use relay and earth pin 85 on the relay to pin 4 on the light switch, which is earth switching. Wheres Jochen this morning He will know.... I hope

Have got hold of 2 more short shifters if anyone is after one $110 incl Gst + freight

These have a control unit for each set of rings. Its the pulse coming down the positive to carry out check control that is the problem. I'm going to see if we can turn off check control in the LCM for the park lights only or else wire them to an ignition soarse , they will then be on all the time, which I really dont want to do, but we may not have any other choice
-
The problem is the + pulse from the check controll...it flashes left then right as the check control does its self check. Not enough to glow a bulb..but enough to pulse the angel eyes
-
Welcome to the forum.... Pictures of your car is a must do Dont go for the cheaper trans oil. Use either OEM ESSO or you could use ELF G3 LL, which is what we use Never compromise on using quality lubricants on your car...you might end up regretting it

We have just gone and fitted some Lumenux CCFL angel eye rings to the reflectors of a BS members car and I now have a problem. The vehicle is a 94 E38 740I with check control When the engine is running and the park lights are turned off, the pulse by the check control keeps flashing the rings We have tried the installation with the control units installed in parallel & in series, we have also tried a relay hopeing the pulse wasnt great enough to activate the relay... but it does The instructions with the kit say " day light running light" our cars do not come out with daylight running lights The only way round this I thought would be just to run them off an ignition soarse or an independant switch... which I'd rather not do Anyone got any ideas ?? Please dont answer this unless you know I already know it wouldnt be a problem on an E30 or a vehicle not running check control
-
You need to identify the fault first...then proceed on costing, otherwise your only guessing. 90% of a good job is proper diagnosis first
-
Could be steering box adjustment, tie rod end ball joints or centre track rod ball joints...get it checked
-
I think he might be offering to help you with a wholesale deal... ask him
-
When this happens, does your radio and heater stop working too ?? If so, it could be your ignition switch that is faulty
-
T27 with a 10mm spanner on them work. My set you can use sockets or spanners on them. Make sure they are good quality and also make sure they have gone into the torx properly...or it will be manifold off and passibily alot more $$ Also be careful you take care with the pipe fitting going ito it from the timing cover on the L/H bank and dont let anything fall into the plenum chamber when you have the valve out
-
Yes ...quite easy with the right tools
-
If its faulty...yes. Otherwise you arent going to know what you are actually dealing with. You already know it has an air leak...you must do this first and hopfully nothing else will show up. The air leak will be affecting all readings from the air mass sensor, including start up. Out of scale readings from the air mass sensor should throw up oxygen sensor out of scale fault codes. Power to the DME relay on start up can be also checked quite easily as well.
