M52 conversion wont turn off!

Post by steve5134 »

Hi guys.

So I've completed the conversion (almost) of my 316 Auto to a BMW M52 328 (now with manual box from 323)
Starts, runs, lights all work.... BUT - it doesn't like turning off. I've been stalling it to turn off as I can take the keys out and it keeps going.
Maybe the ECU is getting a constant 12V supply from somewhere?

Just asking the question as maybe someone has came across this before?

Thanks

Steve

I'm getting closer - position 26 on M52 88 pin ECU has a constant 12V which I think needs to be a switched 12V (Battery feed) - just need to find out what colour wire this is...
