- In this video I show you how to program a new FRM module to your BMW using the INPA suite of software. Use INPA to establish and verify a connection. Program the VIN with WINKFP. Use NCS Expert to program the VO (vehicle order) and then code the FRM for your car also with NCS Expert.

Does anyone know what a dealership would charge for that?
Somewhere between 1 and 9 million dollars
350 dollladollaaa
in the netherlands they charge 661 euros
America south Texas 2500 for new module and program
I just called and they said around 1,100 for replacing and coding the FRM🥲 what a scam
Thanks! A video always helps. This is so much easier than I thought.
Thank you! great video and very much appreciated
Thankyou so much this just fixed my car, even BMW couldn't fix it!
If you would like some beers on me let me know 🍻
dude this helped me so much!! thn x!
Thank you for this, helped me fix frm 9cd3 error
I am one of those people that needs to have my hand held to lead me where I need to go on a computer. The final process was to execute the job to finish but you did not say which F button to use to execute the job. Other than that it is a fabulous video. I hope i can do this job and make us both proud.
How did it work out?
Yeah i picked one and it failed. Also couldnt change my vin with winkfp as option wasnt there.
Kind of a let down.
Turns out in the settings there's an option to input vin in comfort mode.
Still didnt work lol
@@bengreen-plant809 same here. No option to enter VIN. And even though I can make the same selections he did in winkfp none of the text is dark…almost like it’s greyed out.
thanks for the video. do you know if this process would be the same for other modules like szl or airbag?
Thank you!
Well done... (and tbh I probably wouldn’t dare doing this job without a full run-through like this one).. my guess is that a dealer here would charge at least 200 euro for this.. I had them do a simple DME calibration and fuel-trim reset after replacing the valvetronic motor (a very simple job in inpa) - it cost me about 150 euro after some bargaining (always ask for special quote from the stealers)
4 years later I'm having the exact problem and intend to fix it myself.
Did you manage to fix it and make it work properly following this guide?
Does this work for FRM modules that have stopped working due to dead battery? Or does this only work on new parts?
1:40 I was trying to do it the other way around, now it should work
Thank for the video and for sharing. My TPMS RDC sensor is failing and most likely the new one will need to be coded to the car. Will this process also work to code the TPMS sensor? I already have Inpa, ncs expert & winkfp. Please let me know. Thank you.
Thanks for the video. I am trying to code an airbag/communication module and following this instruction when I open winkft , comfort mode and click update ecu and I get no list. I was wondering if you have encountered this
Audio is perfect
Aye! Thanks for letting me know I needed to correct it.
I have a used Frm2 module to replace my frm1 (because installing xenon), do you know if the steps in this video are the same, or does the data on the frm2 need to be deleted or something?
Have a 2013 E70 x5 35d. Hoping to change the FRM myself. Assuming the steps are near identical? What are the chances of completely discombobulating the Cars electronic/computer system and creating more trouble than I’m starting with?
I read that some of the pins are different on FRM3 and then some of the stuff wont work like xenon shutters for high beams, did those work for you fine?
Hi... I have to code a used Jbe module. Any chance the steps are the same but choosing the jbe module insted? Thanks.
Hope this gets a response but would this work for just resetting the module back to factory? cuz my FRM module in my 335xi has all the LED lighting things activated from previous owner and i want to disable them all becuase i believe its causing my projectors to not work right. Thanks!
Awesome work.. thank you. Do you have a vid how to replace and code fem 2014 BMW X1 I am try6to replace with a used one. Current one got wet
Hi when I click the module MSV80 in WINKFP it gives me 2 option Default or ECU=MW,ADDR=12 under intergration position. Should i just choose default or both thanks in advance
Hi, what is the difference between K D Can USB vs Ethernet cable? Can either one of those be used to code the module(s)?
hi, I have the following problem: I have retrofitted the LCI headlights with cornering lights and the right headlight lights up to the left when you steer to the right. I wired everything correctly and coded it correctly, no errors in the on-board computer, what else can you do so that the right headlight swivels correctly to the right?
Hey will. Same thing for the mini cooper TCM? I'm using a used one off another R50. Thanks.
So this process was the write the vin on the new module?
that was a helpful tutorial. Curious is WINKFP and NCS Expert included in INPA? Or are these freeware? I've been using an autel system, and tired of paying their exorbitant membership dues. Would like to pay for a daily BMW programming license for $30 and schedule all my jobs for one day a week. Much cheaper and more efficient to do it that way. Have a decent laptop, just need to get started. Perhaps you can recommend a how to tutorial on setting up the basic software like you demoed in this vid. Nice work thanks
I downloaded this for free from Bimmergeeks.net I believe they also have a set up guide for you to follow. Just need to be running windows.
Do you select ‘process car’ or ‘process ecu for the last step? Thanks
Thanks man you are a hero!
Hi Will. Thanks for this tutorial. Would it be the same steps if I replaced the FRM with a used one? It’s Frm3 AHL that I originally had and now I got a used one which is also FRM3 AHL. Same steps for all?
Hi, I have the same issue with FRM3, but I do not have NFRM process ecu, is it normal? 6:12, 6:36
What tool did you download from Bimmer geek?
I was just told by my bmw dealer if I replace the FRM I need to replace the RDC aswell and both need to be recoded. Is this true ?
Can you possibly make a video showing the relationship between WinKFP, INPA and NCS Expert? I noticed you bounce between them and I would like to know why. What does each of them do.
WinKFP is for updating the software on modules, INPA is for reading information and fault codes, and NCS Expert is for changing parameters within the software on the ECU, also known as coding.
@@nhoodfanok
Thanks will this work on Mini as well with FRM2?
i replace FRM1 to FRM3,
i tried change vin with winkfp, but i get some of this error, when its at like 6-12%
7054 Error clear flash done - no answer from ECU (IFH-0009) but gateway o.k., no OPPS/Most
at 6:53 "process that job...". which key do you hit to process the job?
Which one did you end up pressing??
@@boomy818 f5 or check the task bar for jobs
My dipped beam wasn't working, took it to a garage. They charged me 2.5 hours to reprogram the module and delete the hard coded errors. Could I just have done this??
Hi. I this video I cannot see FRM coding like FA_WRITE. You are only doing CAS and NFRM default coding. So, where is the copy of coding from the CAS to FRM? Or FRM = NFRM?
Hi.
Thank you very much for this tutorial.
At the end (6:53), do you have to click on "process ECU" and choose again "NFRM" before hitting F3?
Again, thanks very much for your help.
I'm wondering the same
@@n444YY me to, cause i didnt do that, i just tried hitting f3(procces car) and it does nothing.
Juan Gouveia i got mine fixed, ill respond to u soon
@@juangouveia8098 1. Load NCSExpert.
2. Load Profile and select Expertmodus(offen)
3. F1 (VIN/ZCS/FA)
4. F3 (ZCS/FA f .ECU)
5. Choose the car (E89 for e9x)
6. Select CAS
7. F6 (BACK)
8. F4 (Process ECU)
9. Select the Module you want to Revert back to Stock.
10. F2->Choose "SG_Codieren->ok
11. F3->to start coding the ecu with factory settings according to the vehicle VO.
12.Done, this will copy all your previous frm settings from CAS module.
This is how i coded my used frm module, i did vin with tool32 first, but i dont think it's necessary to use tool32, but u can do it aswell if u like.
@@n444YY this saved my sanity!! Thanks for listing this out!! I was able to get my FRM working like a champ.
If you have corrupt coding on old FRM and fit new FRM will the coding be factory or will it bring the old coding to the new one?
Mine seems to have failed.. is there anyway to know if you can reprogram my bad one? Or if I have to replace altogether.
Hi i changed an alc module to a new one a e90, what are the step to code it ? Because once it was changed i still get an error message on the dash thank you
Hi! My winKFP says update ZUSB och f3 and there is no ”update ecu”. When i click update ZUSB i get the same window as you but no fimilies. Please help!! :D
did you get a answer ?
at 6:50 you say to process job... do you click process car or process ecu?
sir, I had to change my FRM, now my outside mirror no longer works and parktronic also no longer works, when I put in reverse gear, nothing happens - do I have to do the same as in the video?
Thanks
Hi, did you remove the battery power before installing the new module? Thanks
Yes I did.
Can you show step by step how to check FRM bad/good as my BMW 2011 328i has window/mirror/light ...etc is not working as they said your FRM corrupted?
do i need frm2 to do anything wih my headlights. i have an 06 and in bimmecode all i have is brightness... for day time running lights. no option to set adapative lights as day time running
Hopefully someone here can help. I'm having FRM module related issues. I tried to go in and code it like in this video, but with cable connected and ignition on, INPA says that it can't connect to the FRM. WINKP connects to the CAS just fine, but not FRM. I'm assuming this means that the FRM module needs to be replaced? Yesterday I disconnected the battery for about 8 hours while I was refinishing the interior of the car, if this helps. I can give more info if you need in order to help.
Hi i have questions I have a e90 2012
1 rh turn light not working bulb ok. Fault code 9cbb also i can not cleare. frm modul or an other fault
2 after 2 days later status msg. DBC RPA DSC TIRE PRESSURE came on status i thing battery i dont know battery voltage 12.35 after stop the engine
3. Can i erase frm files where is it download new files i dont know after i need coding or not coding i dont know
Thanks alot of
Would this work going from frm2 to frm3?
hi please can you tel me what type sp-daten are you useing?
Would this work with a 2010 Mini Cooper FRM?
Can You Make a Video of The Same Thing but Using ISTA-P?? thats what i have and i need to Program a FRM for an F01 BMW
Can you clear short count on FRM with this software?
Where did you purchase the new module?
Can you please tell me how to program the EDC module? Thanks
Thank you for the tutorial,
you have mentioned to use Windows XP but your windows is not XP. is it going to work with windows 8?
It should. I used 10. XP is ideal but not many people have it.
I have a E70 no interior lights no power window no indicator and my door keep saying it's open but even when it's not, I tried to connect the dcan cable but it's not detecting what can I do, I just wanted to use INPA to check if it's my FRM is bad.
Does this cable work for an 97BMW E 39 (528 I)
Would this work on mini cooper as well ??
at 6:53 "process that job...". which key do you hit to process the job? cause i hit f3 and nothing happens. ahould i press f1?
Which one did you end up pressing ????
Hi there my bmw 320d m sport e93 2010 main headlight not working had a auto technician out he said the drivers foot well euc unit taken out sent it to be repaired got it back now plugged it in and still doesn't work I need help please
can u recode an FRM2 i heard u cant reprogram them only rest??
would this be the same procedure for a Mini R55 2012?
How can i code a used DSC module ? Changing vin etc ...... to my e90 2006 xi
Same process for a used frm module?
Bro on the last step do I process car or ecu? I’ve now got the correct vin number but didn’t do the last step as I didn’t know which button to push at 7:04 in video? Thanks
What did you end up pressing? I’m wonderIng the same too I am programming this tomorrow
H i have problem with mirrors practically do not work. There is no broken wire or other no errors in diagnosis. What do you suggest me? is it possible to restore FRM or find the problem in its file?
is this the same for frms that you get second hand as long as it has the same part number? and im assuming same process for a 1 series e82?
Hi!
You found this information?
It’s same process for used modules?
Thanks
Hey Man thanks for the video I find it so usefull. Okay so I have a problem with my headlight Left side turn signal never turns off or blinks. After a lot of troubleshooting and I paid a guy to look into everything points to my FRM module. I got the module used from Ebay. Its module FRM II same exact part number. Would this procedure would work for programming my used FRM II ? Do you have any tips? I'm gonna try to do it myself this Thursday coz the guy wants 150$ for the programming.
It’s the same except for instead of choosing NFRM or FRM3 you would choose your module I believe it’s FRM2 in the list but I can’t remember.
would this work for a 2010 mini cooper?
Does my assembly line show nothing?
Any help what should do get start coding my 2009 bmw 328xi XDrive
would this work for a Tire Pressure Module ( RDC )
Any idea where to download the tools and files since Bimmergeeks closed the link?
This is why it alway nice to have a nerd as a friend 😫😫😫 cuz I have no clue what I’m doing
Thank you for the video. May I ask what may be a foolish question? Can I use the same sequence of steps after installing a used module (in this case the EMF) into my car? Cheers!!
Why is my WINkfp empty when I cilck comfort mode or update .No assembly info coming up
Can i start the engine while coding? I havent an charger
I don't have the same options when I open WinKFP. My choices after I choose comfort mode are: enterzusb; choosezusb; updatezusb.
Hey so I have a used frm2 module and I’ve installed it in my frm1 car. They’re both from similar spec e90’s so we’re good there. When I used winKFP to code the frm2 to my vin it went through it’s processes and said done or successful or whatever it says. Then when I went into ncs and I did fa_write then I went to the frm module and the vin was still different? Also there’s talk about changing the date? Anyway you could get in contact with me? In need of help!!
So I know the process for doing an frm2 will vary slightly. Did you choose the appropriate one. When I chose nfrm you would choose frm2.
BMW-E90-HQ I think the main issue was the fact that I tried to change the vin with winKFP and the first time it said it worked but it didn’t. Then when I tried to do it again the program errors out
@@TheGamingWorkbenchHD how did you fix it?
@@MrOlympia22 I ended up using Protool
@@TheGamingWorkbenchHDhey bro did it work??
I have same problem on my e82 window .. Intermittent work. Any help
Does anyone know if turning on your car and leaving it running while coding the FRM module will have any negative effect to the whole process, is it safer to just leave it turned off and hook it up to a trickle charger?
Bump
So this is a complete guide on how to recode a frm module. I am asking because I accidentally connected an amplifier the wrong way and the frm module didn't like that. But nothing is physically broken, think it's just that the software need to be recoded.
Does anyone know if you need to do anything before taking the old FRM out like back up the data that's in it for the new FRM, or does it do that through other modules when you enter the VIN?
The data is on ECU
Hi great vid. Is this process still applicable for a FRM that lost programming from low battery?
No that needs taking out and sending for repair
So if the FRM is available (visible ) on INPA then this process with work otherwise it will need eppeom reprogramming. Correct?
@@craigroy5317 yes mate. If u can’t communicate with it then you need to send it off

Did you run into any issues installing or running the BMW Standard Tools onto a Windows 10 computer?
No. I read that I might but it installed just fine.
hi... i need help to flash frm3 on winkfp but on the update Zusb i only have frmpl2 and frm2 anyone know why i dont have the frm3 to select and get the right Zusb number please.. any idea../?.. thanks
NFRM the same by FRM2?
So I followed these instructions and now I have an abs light on and my windows don’t roll up or down.
Hi, I have a question. My FRM Module on a 2011 E92 335i seems to have lost some of it's memory. One touch UP doesn't work, but one touch Down works. When I need to roll-up my windows I have to hold the switch on UP position until the window closes. I have tried re-initializing the windows, but it fails, even if I use ISTA+ with a ENET Cable it fails.
So my question is that, can I follow this procedure outlined here to re-install the FRM Module using NCS Expert?
You could and it probably would work. But it may not do anything or it may completely fry it. It’s already on its way out if you’re having issues like that. If that’s important to you I’d give it a go knowing you could be buying a new module.
@@BMWE90HQ at 6:53 "process that job...". which key do you hit to process the job? cause i hit f3 and nothing happens. should i press f1?
@@juangouveia8098 what did you end up pressing?
In NCSexpert. When I try to do it the 2nd time and select NFRM in chassis I get a VIN is faulty error
This is usually due to incorrectly stored FA number, someone probably coded this car with some other tool like Launch or similar...
hello :-) how did you manage to get FRM3 to show up in the ECU family in WinKFP?
Update your sp-datens files
I have a refurbish Footwell Module for my e90. All works except for the ‘car on lift’ symbol. How do I get rid of that symbol?
What do I need to have it programmed and coded to my car?
This is a service reminder symbol. Check your infotainment system and see if it says your inspection is due or something.
Do you know where to download this software now. They took the software down.
@6:53 to process do we click on F4 or F5?
Can somebody tell me if my car have
FRM ll can i change it to FRM3R??
Would this same process work if I need to reset a short circuit rear tail light problem
I’m not 100% but I think so.
How did you fix that issues
Yes. It will
FYI. If you have a MacBook you can use a virtual machine and run windows 7 to use IMPA and other bmw software.
Yes I have downloaded oracles virtual machine but I haven’t set it up yet. I’m also not sure how having to use a usb-c adapter will effect anything if at all.
BMW-E90-HQ I use virtual box on a 2018 MBP and it works fine with the apple adaptor. You just select the device in virtual box.
does anyone knows if this coding method works with mini Cooper?
