BMW POWER DISTRIBUTION BOX/ISM/INTEGRATED SUPPLY MODULE FIX - NO POWER TO THE WATER PUMP

[@Marv43625]

Hi, what a great job! And what a unbelievable design to put a fuse into permanently sealed box, and make it only replaceable as a whole 250$ part. From user perspective missing dipstick looked like biggest nonsense, but now I see there are hidden "gems" everywhere.

[@Marv43625]

Hi Afeef, can I have a question? It seems that this 50A fuse is the problem on my car, but before disassemble , I ask friend with some electrical knowledge to have a look and there was one strange thing. When ignition is on, there is cca 12V on the input terminal and no current on output (connector to the coolant pump), so fuse seems logical. But, when we remove the whole bloody thing out of the car, there is no resistance between input terminal and connector to the coolant pump. Shouldn't be there a resistance when fuse is broken? It's on F20 car, same engine, the parts seems to be the same just in different location.

[@bimmerhacks]

@Marv43625 I don't know about the resistance thing that you are talking about which is control and BSD signals I guess. But for sure you need to get a 12 volts output from the water pump connector or the ISM water pump output connection which is a single PIN all the time when the engine is running. So as per me your ISM is good and problem will be in your Water pump. You can see the dismantled water pump in my videos, it's complex circuit so you might have to change the Water pump

[@Marv43625]

@@bimmerhacks thanks for reply! engine was not runnig, just ignition switched on. I just swaped new engine, just a core all accessories and wires are from my old engine, including water pump. I wanted to bleed coolant before first start and there is code "coolant pipe missing" We checked the ground, there is no problem. So, I do not have 12V going to the pump from ISM, should it be when igition is on but engine is not runnig?

Yes your water pump is faulty. Usually the WP will fail by 200000kms

[@crysalxmoonx8568]

Good job explaining everything thanks

[@kevinphothisen5559]

That is a very good explanation. Do you know where “terminal 87_1 no power”. I just replaced a Map sensor on my e70 and I’m now getting a short to earth.

[@bimmerhacks]

As I understand the MAP sensor is directly connected to DME and you might have to check the ISM for any blown fuse as it powers DME. TERMINAL 87 means it should be powered by a relay so relay powered fuses are 4,5 and 6. 5 is the more likely 20A fuse. Make sure the MAP sensor is a good and genuine one, it can cause no start issues, also check its wires for any damage in it's path

[@kevinphothisen5559]

Short circuit of wires

[@kevinyuan380]

@@bimmerhacks can a short that affects the pump happen from any region of the harness, or only from the sections that directly plug into it.

[@bimmerhacks]

@kevinyuan380 if you're referring to water pump, the water pump is prone to internal water leak within and cause the fuse to blow. Other chances are less unless roddents get in to your engine bay and cut the wires or any recent work done in which the water pump wire got tightened in between the intake manifold or so. By the way the water pump wire is the thick red wire going via the top of oil filter housing in N55 engine

This was a great video. very informational. I do have a question. I have a 2011 BMW F10 with the N52 engine. I have 4 blown fuses in my ISM. Car cranks but does not start. I replaced all fuses, however they all burnt again. Could this possibly be a faulty DME? Fuse 1 = DME Main Fuse 3 = DME Radiator shutter Drive, exhaust flap Fuse 4 = Ignition and fuel injection (DME 6, 8) Fuse 5 = Ignition and fuel injection (DME 10, 8) I connected the car to ISTA and I have some concerning errors. 1F4A08 = Load-shedding relay for ignition and fuel injection system: not tightened.

Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[@bimmerhacks]

Thank you for your appreciation. Question!!! did this happen all of a sudden or there was any work done to the car or car kept unused for long time??? I would suggest u to disconnect Injectors 1, 3 and 6 first and see if there is any change in fuse blowing OFF. Hope u have already checked the wiring harness as there are cases when rodents get in to engine bay and make short circuit. Let me know the result.

@@bimmerhacks To answer your question, I work from home, so I hardly drive the car. A month before, the car stalled while I was on the road, but I was able get it started.

[@Ariana-fh8dd]

I checked all the wiring in the plastic box and did not see anything visually wrong. I cleaned some old oil off but there was no open wiring of concern, however I'm not very electrical savvy but I did a continuity test on one of the ground pins on the DME and my meter did not give any sound. The 6 PIN connector for the ignition and fuel has 5 grounds and one of them was not grounding. I unplugged the connector from the ISM and the DME and I did get continuity. When I checked the pins directly from the DME I was getting continuity from all PINS but that one. I hope this all makes sense. I'm thinking there may be a short in the DME itself. I checked ISTA to see if I can get the engine Wiring diagram, more specifically for the Ignition/fuel but it was not pulling up. By any chance do you have the diagram?

Hi, I'm would like to seek for your advice. My X5 transmission fault code show Oil temperature. After replace the engine oil temperature sensor it still pop out the transmission check light. Did you encounter this issues before? Thank you..

[@bimmerhacks]

You're saying that the error code of transmission oil temperature high pops up, that means the transmission control unit EGS sends this message and it's not engine oil temperature. There is a radiator for gear oil in the engine bay below the radiator fan it might be blocked or the gearbox might be getting faulty.

When we got it all the way in, we try to start it and it never starts just turn over so we put an autel scanner on it and whenever we try to relearn it, it come to a part that it says voltage low or not reach something like that but we get the car to start and it runs a little and start to vibrate and have a little sound like it wants to back fire if that make sense, then shut back down about 4 times so I am trying to find out if there is a relay or fuse or even ECU problem, Please let me know what you think? I check all fuse in the engen area I pull out the box under the glove compartment nex to the door and check it for burn or broken fuse also in the trunk nex to the battery and I pull out the side peace in the trunk and check those fuse as well but all looks good to me, the phues I check with a tester and I ask a electrician to test the black regulator that is in the engine bay nex to the inches on the car bonnet and he say it was working, also take out that little black box at the front of the engine that you have to cut open to check fuse and they all good as well

[@bimmerhacks]

As far as I know if the valvetronic motor has been disconnected without disconnecting the battery it will change the alignment of the valve system/eccentric shaft and it can cause rough idle to no start. Valvetronic learning process will not do anything good otherthan ruining your engine. So i would suggest to take the Valvetronic system out check its position by an expert better check eccentric shaft position sensors condition(Sensor might be faulty). Please keep in mind that I am not an expert just a BMW owner ;)

[@bimmerhacks]

Before doing these make sure you have new Battery. A battery that is old can make your diagnosis go wrong. It might just be a battery issue.

@Afeef Hey man....I checked the water pump fuse....it's fine..... 🤔 Last week I was running it hard in Sport mode....over heated with notification of high temp came on & car went into limp mode n barely could pull itself. Had it towed home...set for a week....went out today checked the fuse...it's fine...ran car for 20 min & does not get hot.... It has 109,000 easy miles on it....what ya think man? Thermostat?

@@usa1144 the thermostat is fail safe so if the thermostat go bad then the car must run more cooler than it should. If your water pump is more than 7 years old then it's time to change it. If your BATTERY is 5+ years old it could lead to unbelievable different sorts of issues, never the same whenever the battery goes bad.
