Starter Replacement

Rising · 08-25-2020, 02:15 PM

Replaced my starter for 07 E90 335i. In the progress of putting everything back, there’s a wire I don’t know where it goes. The wire is under the intake manifold(wire cabling junction box I think). Wire with a green tab. Please help. Thanks.

Could the wire be for the Disa valve? Looks like my car doesn’t have one. 11/06 production date. If it is, maybe it’s an unused wire? The wire is short, so it can’t go too far.

Don't think there is a DISA on the 335s.
It could be a wire that goes on the charge pipe. One of the MAP/MAT sensors. That's one of the last things left that you have not installed.

MAP sensor plugged in. Another view with the wire still unplugged.

Fuel pressure sensor on the hard line? Knock sensor?

Thanks. That’s the plug. It was hidden underneath the starter.
