Hi Everyone,
My E46 is a 1999 328i sedan with rear power windows. For the second time in about 21 years, the GM5 has gotten old and forgetful.
The first time this happened (https://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=802312) I found a used module on eBay with the exact same part number, installed it myself and had a local shop code it. That fixed the problem for about 10 years.
This time I'm thinking it would be wise to get a more recent used GM5 so that the door lock relays will be in better shape.
So here is my question: what part numbers will be compatible with my car? So far, it looks like I should avoid modules with "LOW" on the part number sticker. What should I look for and what should I avoid?
I suppose I could buy a new 61353454607 for about $550 that would work, but I'd rather buy a used one for less than $50.
