BMW 1 series 118D

[Gazph]

Hi all,
Having trouble with my 1 series, turns over but won’t fire, just stopped when driving.
Think the problem is no power to fuel pump in tank. Does the diesel have a fuel relay? If so any one know where it is.? Or is it just the EKPM fuel pump control unit.
Have checked the fuses and they are all ok, just need pointing in right direction.
Cheers Gazph

Hi are you sure the Timing Chain hasnt snapped?

[smashy]

Does it sound "Normal" when you try to start the car or like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoNNlK8aZU4

Hi guys thanks for replying, not checked timing chain, but as no power to fuel pump in tank, suspected it might be this. Will do a check on timing chain once this weather has improved.
Cheers, all info is good to sort the fault out.

Hi alll, checked timing chain all seems ok, noise turning over seems normal just not firing,
Any other ideas beside the fuel ekpm fuel unit, that would not allow fuel pump to work.
Any help would be appreciated.

Are you still getting the eml light turning on and off when you put the ignition in as it should?

[Gazph]

No, not getting that light on, not showing any lights apart from outside temp when key pushed in.

[Gazph]

Showing all sorts of lights when I try to start eng, but don’t stay on when stopped.

[Gazph]

Checked stored codes on my gate maxiscan and it says Fuel volume regulator control- open circuit. Is this the the fuel pump control unit.
If anyone has any ideas would be appreciated, thanks to the other members who have got back to me.

Not sure mate hopefully someone will be along who knows more. If you are not getting a eml at all though my bets would be something ecu related

Thanks Stu

I have a 2010 1 series 118d coupe that lost power broke down and now will not start I was not seeing high pressure at the injectors. So striped the High Pressure Pump down found iron filings in it so replaced it with a new one.
Still will not start have code (A54D/present Massage (Fuel Pump) 0X335 Faulty Receiver KOMBI Transmitter EKP) Changed rear tank module powered up fuel tank by bypassing Module tank pump working Checked wiring from tank module to DDE module. Sent DDE module for away for test all working.
Can not clear code. Fitted new diesel filter
Cam Chain all good Run out of things I can do any help..! Please

Regards Steve

From memory, the fuel pump control module in the boot behind the drivers side trim panel - rear seat down, pull the trim carpet panel off and it's there.

Have fitted a new fuel tank module. and can run test from ecu reader so all working
Still will not start or fire
