Here's what happened :1. My E34 1995 520i had been having problems starting in the morning for sometime. Needs to crank the ignition very hard a number of times before it'll start.2. Yesterday, the engine started and then stalled. After that it can't start at all. Tried to jumpstart but still cannot start.3. I sent my car to a nearby mechanic and he says that the knock sensor is faulty and its changed. But the car still wouldn't start.4. The mech told me that the voltage to the sparks are low and he suspects that there is a shorted wire somewhere. I asked if the coils are faulty, but he doesn't think so since all 6 coils show the same low reading.5. Is there a possibility that my immobilzer is shorted some how and preventing the ingine from starting ?Would appreciate it if you guys can help me out on this or recommend a good mechanic.Thanks <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
