Purchased a 2011 BMW 328i used it came with extended warranty the first issue I had was in my foot well module I came in from work parked car in drive way woke up the next morning to no headlights turn signals and car would not start I contacted BMW because there was a recall on the foot well module took car in to get everything checked out BMW replaced foot well module said everything was ok drove car home thinking everything was ok parked car woke up the next morning car was completely dead no power so I took battery to get tested and had to replace the battery also the battery terminal cause saftey terminal went off from there I replaced everything that was needed car has power but will not crank had it diagnostics said it was relay replaced all the relays in the car no start same issue had the crank position sensor replaced still no start battery good looked online to see that the frm could cause electrical issues which is clearly the issue but all problems to this point got worse since module was replaced by BMW dealership and diagnostics by them stating everything was ok. Ive literally exhausted my options of buying and replacing parts and the problem persist when I contacted BMW about the recall on the electrical problems with the foot well module instead of them just replacing a module and saying my electrical was ok when it clearly was not.
Footwell module failure caused the turn signals, interior lights, power windows to fail to operate. The failure occurred when a mechanic tried to run diagnostics on the vehicle during routine service.
