Component and Signal Information From WDS




System Overview of Component Groups in Diagnosis

Note:
For technical reasons associated with the system, the screen shot below has not been translated.
On the "Components" screen from the WDS DVD, the abbreviated designations and components are structured alphabetically.
For technical reasons associated with the system, it is not possible to show the translated version of the screen.
The texts in this screen shot are explained (and therefore translated) in the accompanying text.






The illustration shows the overview of component and signal information on WDS DVD for the E90 (WDS DVD: Wiring Diagram System, i.e. the circuit diagram DVD for BMW diagnosis).
The "Components" section is illustrated in detail.

Note:
"D" for "diagnosis interfaces".
The illustration only shows the component groups for the E90. Other component groups may be shown for other model series. For example, the following model series have the component group "D": E39, E39 and E53. This glossary also contains a separate section for this component group.

Note:
"P" for "display instruments".
The component group "P" is found on the model series E52.
This glossary also contains a separate section for this component group.

Note:
"V" for "semiconductors", "diodes".
The component group "V" is found on the following model series: E38, E39, E46 and R50.
This glossary also has a separate section for this component group.
