CoxyNZ 2 Report post Posted December 22, 2019 This blue wire on the ignition coil I noticed was just hanging off? Does it go anywhere or is it important? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30 325i Rag-Top 2957 Report post Posted December 22, 2019 From the photo it looks like it goes to the capacitor on the bracket fixing bolt? The cylindrical looking thing next to the nut. In which case it is probably there for noise suppression to reduce the interference on the radio signal, you can a background "whine" on radio stations if various bits of electric gubbins in the engine bay does not have these fitted.

CoxyNZ 2 Report post Posted December 22, 2019 Yes one end come from the capacitor. Is there a certain spot the other end should attach? Or does it just attach to the bolt next to it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
