I have a 2003 Z4 3.0i ... My soft top will not go up and the red light is flashing so I did a scan and I got the following error code: "43 Drive, cowl panel, open circuit" it also shows me the part required as being part # 6936801 (soft top control module)
Has anybody here ever replaced the soft top control module in their Z4 and if you did was it a second-hand module or a brand new module and did it have to be coded by the dealer?
The reason I ask is because I have read several posts on other forums where people have installed second-hand ones without having to encode it, but then there was this one post I came across where the guy installed a brand new top control module and it did not work so he had to have it coded and then it worked, so he was saying that maybe it's possible that a second-hand one would already be coded but a brand new one would not...
hope that makes sense
thanks for listening
