M42 running issues after hot start
Posted: Mon Jun 25, 2012 11:38 pm
This is a common one, there is a connector outside the loom wrap that controls where the ECU gets it's warm start information from (TPS or O2 sensor I think).
I have an e36 engine with loom and lambda however I wasn't aware of this when I swapped it so I have removed the connector and joined the wire together somewhere in the loom and rewrapped it. Does anyone (Brianmooore!:)) know what colour this sucker is and where it connects to as the hot start arsing about is just damn embarrassing!
edit:
I actually do have a lambda sensor so I think this wire should actually be connected, would this suggest the sensor is fooked? I think I also wired up the diagnostic plug for this so it should show up? and if I do cut it then the ECU will use the TPS instead?
