Electrical System Malfunction in Cold Weather

jaehshim · 02-09-2022, 04:22 AM

Trying to look for the right Electronic Junction Box for my car.

My car is a 2009 6MT M3 Sedan.
Do I need to be looking for a specific model yr (2009), MT (not DCT), M3 (not non-M3 models) junction box to match? or can it come from ANY model yr E9X 3 series?

Trying to look for one that will be "most" matching for my car, looking at junkyard or M3 par stores.

Will i need to code it ANYWAYS? regardless of which JBE it comes from?

same issue as original thread writer, looking to buy JBE
Contacted bimmerbrain, no response i dont think he's in service anymore
Is there any way to get a new/used JBE coded properly to my car? any recommendation?

Thanks all for providing an idea regarding tackling this issue.
I had the same issue as the original poster, was looking in for the past few years

Here to update that I ended up purchasing a NEW JBE box OEM (was couple hundred bucks), got it coded from a reputable BMW shop (NOT dealer, they would have costed thousands just to diagnose and another thousands to just to install + code). anyways, it is working perfectly, no more cold weather bug/lag electronically
