VE L98 Starting circuit via remote relay (BMW E46 conversion)

Hi all,

I've nearly completed a 2007 VE L98 6.0 + manual conversion into a E46 BMW chassis. Just a few bits to finish off now...

I've read somewhere that pinout X1-52 'Starter Relay Coil Control' needs to be grounded via a 100 ohm resister when using a remote relay - can anyone confirm this to be true please?

Anyone got a starting circuit diagramme for me please?


I've retained the BMW ECU (it controls a host of other functions) and would like to use BMW's starting circuit control for security reasons.

Same with the fuel pump control...but I'm also unsure if pinout X1-50 'Fuel Pump Primary Control' needs to be grounded as well or not?




Thanks for any input!
