    e36 m3 won’t start

    I have an e36 that I’m working on, just got it running again. It was idling fine for a few minutes and then all the sudden dies and when I try to start it doesn’t turn over at all and when I let off the start button there is a low thump like sound from back of car and it has trunk mounted battery if that makes any difference

    Can you share a picture of your "start button"?
