Changing the BCM

(1/3) > >>

Hi guys,

I'm looking into retrofitting fog lights into my car.

I've found the kufatec wiring and will have to get a light switch/fogs/grilles

But the Kufatec wiring requires a highline BCM (body control module)

Does anybody know how expensive this will be if i were to get one from vw/breakers...

And would i need to re-code the car once it has been replaced or would i be opening a whole bag of worms?!!

Eddie-NL:
Hi
This depends on which MY your car is
BCM refers to the newer types of controller which manages the electrical and comfort options in the car from around 2009
before the 2009 there were 2 controllers CECM and CCM.
The best thing you can do is find out what you have fitted now and work from there. have your car scanned with VAG-com and that will tell you what you have
