Tank Pressure Sensor (EVAP System) or Radiator Outlet Temp (MS43)
The next generation Siemens MS ECUs introduced many of the OBD2 features. This includes Catalytic Converter monitoring and Long / Short term Fueling and Ignition Adaptation. The MS41 was used on the M52 series of engines, MS42 on the M52TU series, and MS43 on the M43 4 Cylinders.
The OBD2 P codes fault protocol was not activated in European markets on this group, as currently it was not required by law.

Exhaust Cam Position Sensor Bank 2
The MSS52 is an M Power ECU designed to run the E39 M5, the Z8 Roadster, and also the Wiesmann Roadsters. The MSS54 is used on the E46 M3 and on some Z3Ms. The system uses an Electronic Throttle to accurately control Air intake instead of the more common Cable throttles used on earlier vehicles

DDE Error
The first series of Diesel engines used the DDE1 control unit, and was found in the M21 powered E30 324d and td, and the E28 524d and 524td. It also found its way into a few rare Lincoln Continentals.
DDE Error
This is an Updated version of the previous DDE 2.1, and was introduced in 1995. This system was used on the M51TU engines.
DDE Low Voltage
DDE 3 is the BMW name for the ECUs used on the M47 range on Diesel engines, also known as he Bosch EDC15. These are 4 Cylinder diesels, used in the E46 320d, and uses Common Rail Injection. Common Rail systems use a high pressure fuel rail with diesel injectors, as opposed to the mechanical injection systems, or the PD (Pumpe Düse) system where each injector also acts as a high pressure pump.
Front Left ABS Valve
The first BMW ABS system, This was a 3 channel system, controlling braking to the front wheels,and a single line for both rear wheels. The wheel speed info could be passed via data lines to traction control systems, which could determine if the vehicle speed signal given from the rear driven axle did not match with the front wheel speed signals and request torque reduction intervention from the ASC (Anti Skid Control) throttle body.
ABS Valve Fault Front Left
The updated version of BMW’s ABS system, this was more advanced. Improvements include a 4 channel system for independent rear wheel braking, which allowed a more active ASC system. With individual braking, not only could a torque reduction be requested via the ASC secondary throttle body, but independent wheel braking could be used to control individual wheel slip as part of a stability program.
