Is there 2 waterpumps on the 96 bmw 318ti or just one
There is a second pump but it is mostly to provide heat to the cabin heater. It is mounted under the air filter assembly. To check it try this. Turn the ignition key to the 'On' position. With your feet OFF the pedals press the start button. This turns on the pump but not the engine. Turn the heat to Max and the fan to Low.
Put you head near the air filter box and listen. If you can't hear the pump try this. Using an extra long screwdriver or a long thin metal rod rest one end on the pump and the other to your ear. You should be able to hear the pump running. *NOTE* It may be louder than you think.

Lost keys dead battery how do I get in my car ?
Give the dealership the VIN number and ask them to get you two keys and fobs.
Get under the engine and connect a battery charger positive to the starter motor Red power wire, and the negative of the charger to the body.
Then call the locksmith - auto electrician - alarm installer back and ask him to register the key to the anti-theft system.
Then with the battery charger still connected, put a new fully charge battery into the vehicle.
Job done.
Or sell it for parts.
Where is the alternator fuse located on a 2006 BMW 330I?
If the alternator is charging the battery it will not be the fuse. The alternator would simply stop working if the fuse has blown.
If the battery isn't holding charge you might have a power drain somewhere in the vehicle. Something in the electrics may not be turning off correctly and draining the battery. Do you have any warning lights on the dash? Have you access to an OBD2 scanner to check for any Trouble Codes?
If it is a power drain the simplest fix is to get a good Auto Electrician to check the vehicle. Finding a power drain or an electrical short can be a real pain in the tail bone job because there is so much electronics on a car. Paying an expert to do it is a lot quicker and easier as they have the right tools to do it.
