Hi guys,

Any help would be great. I have 1 problems when installing alarm/starter on my 330CI. I just can't get the EWS II module (BMW immobilizer) to read the spare key. I've tried many different ways but no luck. DEI 556U then with BMW oem keyring. It just wouldn't start unless the key was insert into the key cylinder and turn 1 click. All the wires were installed correctly because it can be remotely started with it spare key in the key cylinder. I've read alot about EWSII and found out that this specific module not only control fuel and ignition but it also control my clutch switch, however, my clutch bypass working normally everytime before start sequences. Please direct your solution to tntrinh@telus.net . Thank you!

Make sure none of your accessory/ignition leads are crossed. Also make sure they're powered in the right sequence (primary/secondary ignition).

Can somebody post wire a diagram for this vehicle. It's a 2001 BMW 330CI. I use Astroflex' Astrochart and I did exactly what they want. The only thing missing was the secondary ignition that you guys mentioned. Instead, they list this wire as accessory.

Thanks!

Hi guys,

I need some more help please. Have anyone ever try a 330 with manual trans? I use compustar 2WFM8000. It won't read (-) pulse from the door pin. Door close show 0.7v and door open show 0.55v. And if I use positive pulse pin#18 RED / blue from general module only allow to remotely started once because as soon as the car shut off the domelight turn on and reservation was cancelled. Everywhere show RED / blue pin #18 is the door trigger but this wire DIMs. Anyone have different solutions?

Thanks!
