Good luck with your plans for the future.
You certainly know your stuff and provided all the info needed to complete this repair. I have the same issue with BMW 2011 320d, had the battery disconnected overnight.
Such a common problem. Cheers buddy 😊
Brilliant, I was trained in mechanics in the 1970's. so this is all new to me. I'll need the gear and the Xprog to do this correctly. I'm hopeless at the moment, however I now have the correct direction... Thank you Sincerely, Chrstfr
Thanks Chris for feedback !
That clamp that goes onto the solder points is brilliant, where can they be purchased?
AliExpress 35$
Nice work shop
Hi. Thank you very much for the useful info. I'm new to X-prog and was wondering if you could assist. I am getting a 0x0: screen after reading the d-flash. I purchased X-prog V6.12 but can't get past this point. your assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Great thank you 👍👨🏻🏭🇬🇧
I have water come down the pillar where the sunroof drain is I believe the rubber hose is disconnected, water gets into the foot well module some oxidation occurred, under the carpets were flooded and I believe there are Diodes mounted along the rails, occasionally lights will all come on, If I unlock the car with the remote they go off but later come back on again so right now I just disconnected the plugs from the module til I study the circuit diagrams. gonna have to pull the roof liner down to get to the tubes and a lot of drying under the carpets.
You read the flash and write to the EEPROM? What's the purpose of the flash on the board?
Foarte fain videoul ! Ai cumva si un tutorial de brake force display pentru FRM3 pls ?
Thanks for uploading and showing your work! Question: to program a donor first gen R52 Body Control Module (replacing a water damaged one, causing passenger windows to not work) do I need to do the same process as this FRM3? Or can I used WinKFP to write the VIN and car optional?
Thanks again!
Hello, NCSexpert...sg codieren... execute job.
@@MOvidiu Thanks!
where are you at i will take it to you? WOW you made that look so easy bro!!
You are so awesome
Thanks
Thank you for your appreciation !!
Very good pro
super tare...200 ma costat operatiunea asta .....dar nu inteleg dc se defecteaza....se poate strica dupa iara ? mie mi se pare ca se reseteaza...dar nu se rezolva problema in sine pentru care s-a defectat....oare am dreptate ?
Salut Ionel , nu se reseteaza nimic se altereaza informatia in procesor o simpla oscilatie a voltajului de alimentare poate cauza asta... defectiunea este una software nu hardware
@@MOvidiu ..asa mi-a zis si un baiat din reghin...m-a rezolvat azi...acuma merge perfect...e ciudat ca s-a stricat peste noapte...azi mergea maine nu...ms de raspuns
Where can the clip you used to connect to the frm3 be purchased?
Hi
I need to fixe my module too
Hello,i have trouble like this,
Te vizitez cât de curând😂😂😂
where can i find dflash to ee data convertor? thank you
Good video 👍 i have same problem with my bmw e90 exactly the same problem what kind of machin i need for reset the frm ( name ) 👍 thank you
Can u help me to fix my mini cooper footwell
salut,si mie mi la resetat cineva dar acum nu citeste mufa obd,nu merg geamurile spate,nu merge centralizata nici dincheie si nici din buton,nu merg ceasurile de bord,am comandat alt frm din uk pentru ca eu cred ca este defect,tu ce parere ai?
Salut, in primul rand trebuie sa faci o diagnosticare si dupaia sa cumperi piese ! Diagnosticare nu inseamna citirea de erori ! Citirea erorilor face parte din procesul de diagnosticare !
@@MOvidiu am rezolvat,dupa resetare frm acele erori ereau stocate pe ecu si am desfacu bornele de la bateria si am unit firele adica + cu - circa 1 ora si asa sa resetat si ecu si am scapat de probleme
nice video, thanks
Glad you liked it!
Hi, I am writing to you hoping to receive your precious help. I replaced the license plate lights (I have all led lights) with new ones, always led. At the same time, the car battery was completely discharged (it had long been discharged). Unfortunately the car had some sort of frm block, and now the windows don't work, the direction arrows don't even, and the headlights remain on (even if turned off by the selector). what could be causing my frm problem? (low battery or led light bulbs on the license plate? How do you advise me to proceed in detail? A greeting
Can I use this one: Xprog-M 5.68v ?
I have a Mini Cooper S 2010 (R56)
Bravo boss!!!
@M.Ovidiu , I have a question you used other methods to reprogram the FRM , was it not possible to connect scan tool to OBD port and program the module without removing it from the car!
Helo! in this video you can see the method that I am using!
Nice video .can u explain what u did to original dflash have u modify the dump or only read erase and write thnk u
Hello, read original Dflash convert it in eee (eeprom) and write new eee
Where can I buy the software and the x pro box?
Hello! you will need to figure out by yourself ! I don't have a place! do a Google.com search..
You are the best.
I have Mini Cooper 07.convertible. Was flooded on a rainy day. Roughly 2inch water on the floor. Every thing was dead. Nothing worked. Took it to the dealer.car came back to life with intermittent drivers side window not working and now not working at all. Everything else works. Window motor is examined. It works. Any suggestion??
Hello. it is possible that the FRM module may be defective, some tests and measurements must be made .... and possibly removed from the car and opened to see if it has traces of water or oxide
Thank you for your clear video, M.Ovidiu.
Does this coding or reprogramming work for all type of FRM modules ? I have an FRM2 module, but I have read on internet that only FRM3 modules can be repaired. Do you have some experience with FRM2 modules ? It is mounted on an BMW E93. Thank for your advise and I wish you good luck in your job.
Yes FRM2 can be repaired, the process is similar, but it's not really worth it because they are easy to find used, they don't break down as easily as FRM3 and for this reason they are even cheaper used
Hi bud, did you disconnect battery first when you re-installed repaired FRM and then connected battery?
Hello . No I didn't disconnect it .
Sorry if I missed this info somewhere but I was wondering which adapter is plugged into the xprog module?
It is the BDM adapter
How do you know what mcu it is? Do you read on the chip and choose that number in the program xprog?
Yes!
Hi I have a 2009 mini and they key fobs will not unlock the car but will lock it, do you have any ideas? Is the central locking controld by the frm module thanks for your help
Hello, you need to do a complete diagnostic to the car and see what is the problem, maybe is the remocontrol or the module or the actuators....
Hi i hava a bimmer tool also in side program frm short resset. Can i use bimmer tool can i resset frm. Also same job or different. Thanks for info.
hello . unfortunately I don't know , because I don't use bimmer tool
Hello everyone, tried this with Xprog 6.12 but getting "Can't get access to BDM" error message! Anyone caring to share a R56 HIGH EKS FRM3R PL3 dump from a mini countryman?
Is it same procedures to replace with a another used frm module?
Yes but you will need to code your vin using tool 32
Amazing job, do you need to disconnect the battery to connect the module back?
No , you don't need to disconnect the battery
@@MOvidiu many thanks for your time and your help. all the best..you are a top man 👨
I am French I want to know if the module is used for the light rings of the front headlights thank you
Hello ! Yes this module controls all the lights , front power windows ....
Where can I buy the complete kit to program my footwell module? Can you share the link please? And also do you have more information on the program you use on the laptop to program the module? I am having a hard time finding this information.
Hello ! in the description of the clip you have the link
show man
Super!
Also which windows would I need to have on my computer that I purchase jut to restore the FRM3?
If you ask me that thing it is mean that you don't know to work with BMW software, in this case I advise you to search for some to do that coding for you, the coding is done with NCS with a blank file
can you replace it with one from a junkyard if you found it?
Hello, yes, but will need to be coded to be associated with the car
Buna Ovi ..adaptatorul care il folosesti de unde as putea sa îl cumpar si eu..?
Salut , il poti gasi pe Ebay
bro link for the tool which you use for connect without solvering ! PLEASE or name of the product !
Hello ! search on Google : FRM clip
Where did you get the special tool so no need to solder?
Search on google FRM clip ....
Salut Ovidiu,
Dacă ii schimb modulul trebuie sa îl programez după?
Mulțumesc
Salut, Da trebuie codat dar e posibil sa mearga daca masina de pe care il iei area aceiasi echipare
@@MOvidiu salut, mulțumesc pt răspuns .
L am dat jos și l am dus la cineva sa îl reprogrameze ca îmi murise bateria nu era ars . Seara făina
My modul is unused
Hi thanks for this nice vid.
Most of users of this flashing tool (china clone) are reporting that it does'nt work. What is your opinion after using it since a while. And what's your windows systhem your ar using?
Thx
Hello, it is working perfectly but I have a dedicated laptop with no other programs and widout internet access
@@MOvidiu thx a lot
@@MOvidiu hi again, I wish you a happy new year. Just one additional question about the flashing tool you used, will the sw 5.55 version be ok or must it be higher version?
Thx in advance.
My 2006 320d had a flat battery after sitting about 9 months. I bought a new bsttery and fired Car up. Windshield wippers got stuck on hvac controls have no power. Driver's window switches not working. Power mirrior controls coming and going. Im wondering if this indicates the frm? I didnt program the battery to the car but it was the same battery.
Where i can repair modul my minichooper.
Hello, search in your area for someone who repairs FRM
Good day if purchase an FRM3 USED would I still need to have it programmed to my mini?
Hello , you will need to code it on your car
@@MOvidiu can I just send the one in my car or have it coded.
Hello bro i need to buy FRM MODULE programing tool pls help me
Hello Box E Media ! search 'Xprog " on Google and you will find what you need !
Does anyone know what I can do to prevent from this happening again? Should I take out my module when replacing the battery/jump starting?
You have nothing to do to prevent it , if it was restored , theoretically it would not corrupt again in a short period of time
@@MOvidiu hi, Im not so sure, my FRM3 bricked twice in less then 6 month!!
@Ovidiu nice video ! Really really well done. I have a mini on which the module needs to be reprogrammed (battery was dead for many months). I am not sure I am able to do it myself and cannot find anyone in the area (Belgium) that can do it. Even if I buy a new one I understand from your answers to other questions that I need to program it for my car anyways. I know it’s a long shot but…. Can I mail it to you ?… sorry for the question but I am a bit desperate :-)
If you can't find anyone there ... read the description of this video !
hi where can I get the tool your using to clip on the module?
Hello , form Ebay
Can you send me the part number or item number ? Thanks pal
@@darrylsingh9575 i don't have a part number, you can find it on eBay, search FRM clip
@@MOvidiu + Darryl Sing On Ebay search for "FRM testing fixture"
Note: Sometime test points are covered with varnish (BMW cars), so you must remove this coating with a sovant and a cotton stem before using the test fixture.
Can you send me Xprog V. 5.60 files? I lost mine unfortunately!
how much is this repair?
Hello, you need to ask a technician in your area for price
Salutari Ovidiu
Poti sa ma si pe mine cu problema asta ? Eu am comandat un obd K+CAN crezi ca am vreo optiune sa o rezolv? Intrebarea mea e : ce serie de modul selectez pentru Mini Cooper S pentru ca dupa cate am vazut imi apare numai module pentru BMW
Mersi frumos si astept un raspuns de la tiene 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Salut ! nu ai ce face cu un cablu k+can , urmareste clipul video si vei vedea ce folosesc si cum .... , daca cauti in celelalte clipuri video poti vedea inca un clip cu aceiasi reparatie !
@@MOvidiu Atunci singura solutie e sa trimit modulul la cineva care se ocupa cu asa ceva....eu cu k+decan am vazut ceva clipuri cum sé reaeteaza credeam ca o sa functioneze ...mersi mult Ovidiu
Good vid. Very impressed. I'm considering getting one of these xprog things, and your affiliate link doesn't work any more (there's none in stock).
I'm in the UK. Are you able to set up an affiliate link for UK amazon?
Cheers buddy. Good work
Hello I'm glad you enjoyed , Updated the link
Hi. if i buy the xprog can i do it myself? or do I need to be an expert?
if you follow the steps, yes, you can do it yourself
Xprog 5.55 it is ok to do this job?
@@energema1361 I think yes but I'm not sure
@@MOvidiu what versión you used?
@@energema1361 if you look in the video his shows as xprog v 5.6.0
Do to fix this stupid problem you are supposed to have special tools softeare,laptop,wire,etc.this is disgusting
Iam in india
One would think BMW could design a car that if the battery goes dead. All you need to do is replace the battery! But no....
Stop buying BMW's and cars like that and eventually the companies might get the idea, or go out of business like they should...
hey ! I don't want to make you change your perspective about BMW but you need to think that this problem occur at cars that are almost 10 years or older. nobody can test a car this long to see if will fail or not , and on the next generation they didn't use this type of processor !
Just paid 200€ supposedly repairing this shit
Supposedly? Is still not working?
@@MOvidiu it's working
How cool you R 💪👍
Hey ! thanks !!
