VANOS -Electrical Fault or Activation VANOS Inlet Valve (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.

VANOS Retard Valve- Exhaust
The MSS50 is a special ECU designed solely for the European E36 M3 3.2. Designed by Siemens, it integrates full Vanos control for both Intake and Exhaust Cams inside a single ECU, unlike the previous M3.3 which required a separate VNC Vanos Controller
VANOS Retard Valve- Exhaust Bank 1
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

Lambda Sensor Switching TP Pre Cat Bank 2
DME M5.2 and M5.2.1 are Bosch ECUs, used on the M44 4cyl engine, and the M62 V8, and the M72 V12.

Lambda Sensor Timing Pre Cat Bank 2 (TP)
The Bosch DME 7.2, also known as ME7.2, can be found on a number of V8 Petrol engines, used in the 5 and 7 Series amongst others. It uses Torque modeling to control the engine torque output depending on Throttle Pedal Position.
Injection Pump Position Potentiometer
DDE stands for Digital Diesel Electronics, and these were used on BMW’s Diesel engines. DDE2 is used on M41 and M51 engines. DDE 2.1 uses an updated Air Mass Meter with an Internal Air Temperature Sensor, whilst DDE2 has a separate sensor in the manifold.

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.
Front Left Wheel Sensor or ABS/ASC ECU Fault
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.
