Yeah aka series 1.5.

Is there spark?

Are the injectors pulsing? If you take the CAS out and spin it with the IGN on you should be able to hear them.

Id be concerned about the large white plug. You need a pinout of it to see what runs through it. Might not run without one single wire connected.

If you PM BH_SLO32 he may be able to tell you what important stuff is in that plug. He knows heaps about RB wiring.

Its good you have power everywhere, good start.

I just ran Diags on it. Code 11. CAS. Dammm. Ill pull it out and try it Femno. Otherwise I need to find a really nice bloke who can lend me one to see if that is the problem. Might have been damaged with a short when the guy cut the ECU out.

Anyways I'm getting closer!

So have tried 3 CAS's now and still no go. Have no Spark. ECU is stil reporting CAS Error, have reset codes too.

If I reset the codes, get 55 again, as soon as I crank it over again then check it again I get CAS Error again.

What else should I look at?

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
