WTF!!!!!!!

It should take 30 minutes or so to install. Sounds like you need to email photos of the install to BMS or myself for support. I am sure we can spot the problem quickly

UltraRacer13 · 01-26-2011, 08:39 PM

most likely you have the connecters either mismatched, or double check the large subconnector is seated properly and each of the sliders are in right. sometimes the sliders aren't all the way in.

momstmg78 · 01-26-2011, 08:39 PM

Go back and re check all connections. Make sure all connections are pushed together good.

Hisam135i · 01-26-2011, 08:57 PM

all of them are in as instructed?

and now when i start the car it keeps reving it self and shows a picture of a foot on the accelerator

thanks for the support

a**hole i cant get home tell this is fixed just need help not in the mood for you

Juiced46 · 01-26-2011, 09:08 PM

Un plug everything, put it back to stock. Go home. Have a beer. Calm down. Try another day? Clearly something is not plugged in correctly, backwards etc.

Did you slide the connectors in with the arrows facing the correct direction? Did you fully seat the DME main connector onto the DME properly? Is it all the way down locked into place fully?

onesuperboi · 01-26-2011, 09:11 PM

Also, you might try clearing codes.

Otherwise, contact Terry.

Willizm · 01-26-2011, 09:14 PM

When you slid in the jb4 harness into the connectors did they slide in nice and easy or did you force them in? They're slotted so they should only slide in easily one way. Did you so an upgrade from a jb3 or is this your first install of a jb harness.

Jeez settle down man

I was referring to how frustrated you must be after spending 5 hours and still not having it start.

Do you have access to the instructions? Otherwise, take everything off as said above.

There is nothing any of us can do to help you; it almost always comes down to the user (you) plugging in something backwards or incorrectly. If it had started and threw codes, that can help as we could tell which connector is improperly installed/clipped in.

they slid right in no problem the most trouble i had was on the green power connector for connecting the red jb4 cable and after i got that done i close up the ecu and tryed to start my car and ir just had a long crank and wouldnt start and than i turned off the car and went back to the ecu and fixed one of the connectors now the car starts and keeps reving it self showing a picture of a foot on an accelerator in the small screen in between the gauges.

this is my first install.

GeorgiaTech335coupe · 01-26-2011, 09:18 PM

It kinda looks like you have the wrong JB4 sub connectors connected to your DME. Easy rule of thumb to remember which stock sub connector connects to which part of the DME. The black stock ones should be diaganol from each other and the white one goes into the big subconnector.

possible335i2008 · 01-26-2011, 09:30 PM

Chk the power wire install or make sure all the holes are lined up with each other...make sure the long rectangles at the end of each row of connectors are on top of each other and double check that the dme sliders are actually fully seated and making contact to the dme you can sometimes slide them in on the top rung and they will not make contact
