Footwell module connector
So went to check and test voltage in footwell module driver side E90 318d I will attach is the report so you've got an idea of what I'm talking about not sure try to look it's best as I could but does that look like a bent pin in the middle or is it just a ghts on that or the entire voltage Conumdrum that I seem to be trying to unravel thank you ,

Well from what can be seen given the pic resolution it looks bent downwards, you can try to heat it up with an hairdryer/heat gun and slowly bring it back to position, I wouldn't be surprised if a bad connection on the frm is triggering all that errors... do it slowly or it can break

Heck, yeah, that one pin is so badly bent over that it could be shorting the pin next to it. Do not heat the connector! That will only soften the plastic and when the pin is bent back into place, it could deform the plastic and short out elsewhere or make it impossible to mate your connectors again without further damage. Just lift the pin gently without heat and be absolutely sure the pin has returned to its upright position, and is properly spaced to the other pins. You cannot afford having that pin bent over a second time. It could become weakened to the point of breaking clean off.
