Great job! Are you always out of breath from unscrewing a bolt on a battery? Lol I’m just kidding and couldn’t resist Best video on UA-cam and giving the link without any affiliation was the best part, I didn’t know who to trust off eBay so thanks
Yooooo broooo!!! Thank you for this video! This saved me soooo much money and it works! The eBay service was great! They even sent me some gummy bears lol!
Thanks for this man, can’t fu***** believe my frm got fried after fixing my starter 😭, spent like 10k this year trying to bulletproof this car, it’s so perfect and now this happened 🤬
Both headlights would be affected. Along with every other symptom that he mentioned in the video. unfortunately you don’t just get one issue when this happens.
Hey bro thinking about doing this and saving myself some cash one question tho do i also have to disconnect the positive as well i see all over youtube that when reconnecting you have to go in the opposite way + then - ? If i can get a reply from you brother would be really helpful
Hello Adrian, you only need to disconnect the negative terminal this turns all power off to the car directly, once you have the part reinstalled you can just connect the negative and that’s it!
Yeah first disconnect the battery, once you do that replace your old module with the repaired one and or new one, and reconnect the battery and it should work. Let me know if you need any other help.
I would recommend contacting the person who repaired the FRM module and asking them if it was not fully repaired. Because if your angel lights and blinkers aren't working then either the repair guy did not repair it properly or you need to get a replacement one. Id start with contacting the repair person, sometimes they do free second repairs.
There is only one that I am aware of, what problems are you having with it. Is part of your electrical in the dash/widows not working or something else?
Question ... what was the problem with the FRM on that car? What were the symptoms, why did you remove it and send it out? Great how-to video btw, very clear on how it is done, thank you.
I forgot to address this in the video, but the FRM module goes bad, the power windows stop working, dash lights stop working, and basically no power to majority of interior.
@@philipspov OK thanks. On the unit I have here, everything works except the drivers side windows/mirror switch block. No problems with any of those other systems mentioned. Windows do work from all other switches and the fob. Just nothing from the drivers switches. Am trying to figure out if it is this FRM thing or if it is something else. I have already tried replacing the switch block, no change.
Not sure what else it could be, but if your not having a problem with any of the other problems then it may be something else other than the FRM module
Dude, I appreciate the comprehensive video you did on this issue! Great job and thank you!
Glad it could help!
Good stuff man, appreciate it! The details and clarity is certainly appreciated good brother. Great tutorial 💯 ty
Thanks, the video helped me, I appreciate you taking the time to do this

Hope it actually helped, couldn’t stop laughing at the gummy bear part 😂
So you removed it and sent it somewhere for repair? Can you share the eBay link?

Glad I could help, hope you can get it repaired quick and fixes your problems!
i have such a love/hate relationship with this car
Same man, some days it’s good some days not so nuch
Scusami, quel modulo fa accendere anche le luci della retromarcia?
good to know. I have a right headlight that has no lo or hi beam working
Both headlights would be affected. Along with every other symptom that he mentioned in the video. unfortunately you don’t just get one issue when this happens.
Good job comprehensive. Was you car stopped starting as well?
Thank you, also no the car started but majority of electric functions on interior were not working
Never let the engine run with closed gate.
what do u mean ?

What was the initial issue that required the module to be repaired? And modules can simply be repaired? I thought if they go bad you'd need a new one.
The issue I had was no power windows, dash wouldn’t light up, and no lights inside, car starts though. And yes you can get FRM modules repaired
@@philipspov gosh i got this same problem at my first day !!!!
I repair these Modules on the Table. common issues are no central locking and indicators not operating
@Antonis Antoniou probably yes, if you send i can repair
Hi..am in south Africa.. my car locked the keys ..locked the gear and it doesn't wanna start . Battry is fine .what can be the problem .
I’m not sure I’m understanding what’s the issue. Send me a message with more info on my Instagram @philipspov

Question bro . I have the same problem.
I disconnect the battery first then I put the Repair module then connect the battery again ?
Yeah first disconnect the battery, once you do that replace your old module with the repaired one and or new one, and reconnect the battery and it should work. Let me know if you need any other help.
Hi i put the old one repair and reconnect the battery. My windows work now but my blinkers and angel lights
Don’t work
What you think it happed . I wan to send the back to the repair

bro nice one with he guy from eBay for just 55 bucks people out here charging 200
Is there another one of those in a bmw 2010 328i
There is only one that I am aware of, what problems are you having with it. Is part of your electrical in the dash/widows not working or something else?
What if the frm isn’t working do u still have to disconnect the battery?
I still would remove battery before removing and replacing it
@@philipspov I got mine repaired . I plugged it in again took off the battery first and then hooked everything back and it didn’t work still 😑
Message the person who repaired it and tell them it doesn’t work, and if they don’t know why then maybe you need a new one!😬
@@philipspov they said they tested and everything checked out and said to check. If I have a short somewhere and send it back he will repair for free
@@VeronicaHernandez-ex1qr hello i have the same issue regarding the frm module. What was the culprit?

@@facedeace4684 i have the exact same problem bro have you fixed it yet?
@@Yuum.yummms I had an issue with that, sometimes you have to have headlight coded in
Does the car still drive without this module while it’s under repair does anyone know thanks ??
Yes but it just drives you won’t get turn signals and your windows don’t work either
Nice video.. if you could show how to put it back as well could have completed the whole process .. but nice one anyway
Thank you, and sorry there was no way for me to film that area without being in the camera frame due to the lack of space.
How do you install the new module without frying it?
Unplug the battery before taking out the old one and only plug it back in after you install the new module
please help i have same problem
did i have to program or just replace
does the FRM effect the key fob?
No the key fob is not affected
Does the ebay guy give you the address after you buy the repair?
Yes they will send you a message on eBay with the address to send the FRM module to
Ok koo
How do i dc the Battery?
You open the battery compartment in the back and unplug the negative terminal
Putting the 2 connector in the back is a bitch..I'm still fighting it..1 hour into it I'm still trying to figure it out
That was indeed a huge pain in the ass to put in, absolutely no room to move my hands, hope you figure it out!

bhhh oh
stay away from bmw specially 3 series
tHERE we have it Just like that!! lol
