modz 148 Report post Posted March 18, 2018 I've just finished swapping my 330ci to manual. All gone reasonably well. Having followed various threads and guides online, I've used a 4 pin clutch switch Pin 1 connected to power on brake switch Pin 2 connected at pin 23 on the DME Pin 3 connected to earth on brake switch Pin 4 connected to pin 8 on the EWS module However even with pushing the clutch in there is no start / no crank. All interior lights etc work, including dash. Gear icon is on the dash - which I'd expect pre-coding. Any tips / tricks to check? Thanks in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted March 18, 2018 when i did mine i didnt bother with a clutch switch (track car no cruise control etc) just a power wire tapped off the brake switch upto the ews box , there is a spare pin not used , have to add a wire etc , cant remember the pin number maybe 8 ?

modz 148 Report post Posted March 18, 2018 Yeah that sounds like PIN 8 Brent I'm going to go through all the fuses tonight to check I haven't popped the DME fuse or something dumb like that. Currently has no exhaust (headers only) so starting should be nice and neighbour friendly 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure it`s pin 23 on plug X60004 on the DME. Best not to bother with a clutch switch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
modz 148 Report post Posted March 20, 2018 Sorted thanks @HELLBM and @BM WORLD ended up skipping the clutch switch and running power straight to Pin 8 as suggested. Next challenge is reverse lights... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allan 295 Report post Posted March 21, 2018 should be able to use the wires from the auto shift unit. if you haven't removed them Or Fuse 27 with a green 'black wire to one side of reverse switch. Other side blue yellow wire to connector x428 attached to main fuse holder, on top of it. Then on to rear PDC module pin 12 if you have PDC or ground it.. best of luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
