BMW Edme / Engine Control Module (8642338) – a used OEM ECM pulled from a donor vehicle. This ECU manages fuel, ignition, and emissions for the i3, including the 0.6L range-extender (647CC REX) and full BEV powertrains. Also supersedes 8661706, 8642242, 8635447, 8631718, and 7504988. Common failures include no-start, rough idle, or drivability issues when the module loses communication or corrupts data. Requires professional coding to your VIN upon installation—do not expect plug-and-play.
