So I'm pretty much done with the swap, ls1/t56 from a 2004 gto. Its running great, all gauges working using oem ecu and ls ecu to run everything else.

I made my ac lines already and charged the system. I'm using GM compressor and everything else off the bmw.

I've never been good with wiring ac's, so here's my question... how the hell do I hook up the compressor to turn on and off with the bmw climate control?

I'm hoping e46 ls swap guys have ac and can help me out cuz it's literally the last thing I need to do on this car.

and here's a pic of it... sorry didnt take any progress pics, just want to get it done.

When you tore it apart, did you label the wire(s) that came off the BMW compressor? Might be a simple hookup.

Here's some info. Looks like the E46 A/C request is handled in the DME via CAN bus.

If you post in the Engine Conversions subforum on Bimmerforums, they'll probably be able to get you squared away.

There is a much easier way to do this

thanks! This helped a lot.

this is only for the gauges, I already got all my gauges to work without the audrino module

not to dig up a dead horse but did you ever post how you got the gauges working?

Hey I am wondering the same thing. Did you get any answers? Also interested in how you used the stock bmw ecu. Thanks
