Light system! Error

Hey guys if anyone is will to help or contact me that would be great. Willing to pay something at this point! I need help and believe my footwell module needs to be reset. The car was working perfectly fine. Disconnected battery and reconnected in about 2 hours. After that nothing but issues. Can't control front windows, brake lights, signal lights and could be more. All associated with the footwell I believe. Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't jump straight into replacing the module. Saying the module is fried without knowing any background of the situation or even seeing in person is ridiculous.

I would check fuses and power to the module first as mentioned.

If the FRM is getting proper power, I would then see if the module can be connected to and coded. If it can, try defaulting it.

If you cannot connect to the module at all, you can try force flashing with NFS. Then defaulting with NCS.

You cant force flash NFS to a module that has NO CONNECTION or communication and especially a FRM3 module...THe module is fried...These frm3 modules for some reason go out with sudden voltage change and the OP disconnected the battery and probably arched it when attaching the terminal back

Where in this thread did the OP mention there is no coms?

You are assuming......

I have recovered many modules that show com errors in NCS and INPA.

Listen I am not here to do a pissing contest with you...If you recovered a FMR3 then just say you have but don't speculate...I know other modules can be recovered but NOT the FRM3 module
