I'm working on my friends 1985 325e.
the inspection light is on and will not pass emissions testing with it on.
I tried jumping pin 1 and 7 the light did not go off so I pulled the IS board
to change the battery.
to my surprise the IS board has been changed to a non battery type.
its made by Programa inc. I'm thinking it may have bad capacitors?
what else could be causing the light to come on?
:help

Whats the inspection/service light got to do with emissions or do you mean the triangle with the " ! " in the middle

you absolutely correct inspection light has to do with the emissions.
I wish that you guys worked for DEQ here in Oregon.
they seem to think it is connected to the check engine light somehow.
I tried to tell the guy the last time that I was there for an inspection and that he needed to reset the light.
that didn't go over well.:cya
