2008 335xi won't start after replacing mosfets on MSD80 DME

I got the 30bb code a couple weeks ago, tested the mosfets to find the one for injector #5 was bad. I had all six replaced and put the DME back in to find that the car will only crank but doesn't start. I'm getting these codes.

Is the DME fried?

Did you check power to the DME ?

I have in a sense I suppose. I first reinstalled the DME with the JB4. When it didn't start I tried changing the map but I couldn't access the menu on the gauge cluster. So guessing the DME is not getting any power.

I then tried installing DME without JB4 which made no difference.

I know of the 50 amp by the power wire and the fuses behind the glove box. Are there any other locations?

Did you replace the mosfets by yourself or had someone do it? I'm curious as to whether the copper underneath was ripped off. I so then no power would get to them.

I had someone else do it. I could talk to him about it. Would he be able to repair that or am I out of luck?

I've read threads that showed a pic of these fuses, but I swear I don't have these. I'll take a pic of my ecu box once I'm home.

This happened on my 135i. The DME board was damaged when the MOSFETs blew and it required an entire DME replacement and IJEOS conversion.

I'm thinking that may be my issue. I just would like to test all fuses and relays first as that has seemed to save some peoples asses. Just need to find them. My 08 335xi seems to be different in the ecu compartment in that I only have one fuse and one black relay in it. Where most people I've seen have a blue DME main relay and a small black box of 5 fuses.

Anyone with an 08 that can take a pic of their ecu box? I do not have the fuse carrier in mine, the one that says motor scherungen on it.

I bought a "remanufactured" DME from rpmmotorsport.net and haven't had any problems since. It's the cheapest way to go. I also had to replace 2 coil packs.
