there was a small amount of dampness, however the battery overflow tube also wasn't properly connected, so any overflow would have went right into the battery compartment.
I will be cleaning it all out before putting the battery back in.
Now the million dollar question, could that also be the limp mode issue? Since the cable is specifically for engine electronics, and the error I received was about low/high VVT voltage?
I suppose either way I cant know for sure until I have replaced the broken part.
No matter the result, I truly cant thank you enough for your guidance through the issue, I was convinced I had totaled my car in my attempt to be a diligent BMW owner (updating modules in the first place), and would still be floundering about on google hopelessly.
