A new heater element should be around 15 to 16 ohms. So 3.7 ohms would def be considered "shorted."

The new one just arrived. I could not get a Wahler in time (the one I just took out is a Genuine BMW, made by Wahler), so got a Mahle. Resistance measures at 15.8 Ohms. I now fully expect this will solve my DME error code but, as listed in the other thread, I seem to have other problems right now.

Don't forget to replace the dual temperature switch 13621703993 and its cheap. I replaced both the thermostat and dual coolant temp sensor. I kept getting DME error 2EF4/82 - Engine characteristic map thermostat, Mechanics. Dual temp sensor was dark on one side and sparkling clean on the other - looked strange and I don't think it was delivering the correct data.

When my thermostat was going ,I replaced it along with the water pump while I was in there. Easy job.

I don't have any known errors for that part, and plan to currently focus on the known faults. Also, that part (am familiar with it, but thought it was the sensor [not switch, let alone double switch, as it is called] used by the instrument panel temp gauge) seems to be at the back end of the head, under the intake manifold, so it's not like I'm "in there" ... yet Any info on accuracy of it being called a switch vs. double switch (and if so, the temperatures) vs. sensor. I see real OEM calls it a double switch, and somewhere referred to it having a four wire connector, but then it seems to also be common knowledge that it is the CH temp sensor. ???

My bad, I was assuming it's the V8 engine, which has the sensor on the water pump.

Good to know the resistance!

Finally ordered a tstat and coolant from FCP and just got the package. It’s a BorgWarner which was listed as OE. Will update once I’ve installed it. Hopefully that’s all it is. I’ve had the connector unplugged for a while and originally thought it might’ve made a difference but now it seems to be the same.
