| Hey - I've got an e12 M535...It's been a work in progress for a while now. I pulled the motor and put it back in but now it won't crank. I've replaced EVERYTHING but still can't get power to the starter. All the relays are working and the wiring is good. I don't know what else to try......any ideas? |

Not sure what you mean: is there 12V at the big heavy termina at all times? When you turn the key to the start position, do you get 12V at the solenoid?
If you remove the starter, and energize it with the battery, does it run?
Where did you get this car? It was never imported into the USA. Very rare, and very desirable.

Have you checked the ground to the starter?
