to my knowledge ( i may be wrong) this wire wont stop it running its a wire that would i believe tell the management what revs or something the cars at - its probably used for mapping purposes. As i have a wire i run from the ecu to a laptop in the car and i can see real time everything etc i believe its something to do with that.

Only 2 wires go to the "dashboard" off an E48

The shiftlight and the rev counter

Do you already have these wired up ?

What coil pack are you using ?

There is a 3 or 4 pin plug that plugs into most,

Who did your wiring loom ?
