hi again OK IF ANYONE CAN HELP!! i have this 1985 325e that im fixing up that i got cheap...and im restoring...well under the dash is a mess cause someone just ripped out this after market alarm and some other crap..so under the dash near the pedals is like a jungle of wires all bunched up..ANYWAY!!....WELL on the drivers side right under the head light switch--under the dash there is a green wire and a little cluster of wire ill say about 6 wires that go into this kinda plastic thing thats also green and it plugs all 6 wires into this circuit board of some sort---but anyway one of the wires which is green keeps comin out and when it does the car shuts off...sometimes it comes out while driving and sometimes wont start on a hot day---i have to fiddle with it on a hot day then it starts....

but ive noticed sometimes when i have to start my car with that little wire that my OBC(on board computer)starts to work cause now my speedo and gas and OBC dont work ...so if anyone can tell me what the name of this wire is and what it controls then it would be great..THANKS IN ADVANCE
