FRM recall

maxpsi · 03-08-2016, 02:33 PM

This may be a new one (no TSB yet). Has anyone heard of a recall on the FRM?

cptcrunch · 03-10-2016, 08:08 PM

I'm interested. I think one of my FRM modules is dead, but I'm not sure.

Mine was just replaced under a new recall. This is why I asked the question. I wanted to know if anyone else has even heard of this.

I have a short circuit affecting my reversing lights at the moment so I am very much interested in this topic. Winter is on its way out and won't be dark most of the time but its been a struggle nursing this problem while sorting out 'cool' things etc. Does the recall cover all FRMs?

There is a service bulletin out for FRM issues when changing the car battery.

A service bulletin (also known as a TSB or technical service bulletin) is NOT the same as a recall and is NOT mandatory.

Look in the coding section and install one of the BMW Standard Tools setups. That includes Tool32.

Can you point me to this bulletin? I just changed the battery in my 2010 328xiT and I have lost some functions: signal lights, high beam, mirror adjust, windows.

I'm interested in the details of the SIB as well.

Same here, anyone know where we can access the TSB on this?
