Having a little issue as I'm finishing up my 4.0 swap:
I believe it's all buttoned up. We took the 3.0 + Auto out, took the 4.0 + 6spd and slid it in. I think everything's hooked back up.
Now - we are using the 404 ECU out of the 3.0, because the 540 donor car was a '95 w/ EWS II. The 404 ECU from the 3.0 will be Ok for a little while, right? I am sourcing a 404 ECU from an E32 740, but I don't have it in hand yet.
With the key in the ignition and turned slightly, I am getting four error messages (all in German).
One is coolant level (needs to be topped up). One is windshield washer fluid (also needs to be topped up).
One is the transmission program error code. We took the Auto tranny computer out. And we have not jumped the pins on the connector to ground that out.
The other error code is something like "Betriebestanleigt". Maybe I have it spelled wrong...
... any idea what that is?
And, the car won't crank. It won't even try to. There is definitely power at the ignition, because the key will light up the cluster if you turn it.
Is the car refusing to crank because of the 3.0 ECU? Or because of the tranny program error?
Any ideas?!?
Thanks!
