Hi,

I took the PC Board out from behind my dashboard to have a look at possibly why my fuel consumption gauge per 100 km doesn't work, only to find out that the batteries on the PC board have never been changed and so had leaked out onto the board and caused some damage to it's components. Is there any chance you have a wiring diagram for this BMW (1988 - 316 M10) showing the VALUES for the resistors as well as all other components on this mainboard, i.e. IC's , diodes, capacitors as I need to purchase new ones to replace the ones that have been damaged by battery acid. Can anyone help?

E30 owner forums are best for this type of detailed info and I do know that the service light board is still available as a part from BMW dealers, together with the replacement board batteries. Lots of technical info and advice on here:
