EDC button not working with new module

Recently replaced my dead EDC module on my M3 with a new one. It fixed the problem of draining the battery but now my EDC button doesn't work.

Only works (lights up) if I hit the M button on the steering wheel.

The DSC and power button both work around it when I press them.

All I did was plug it in during replacement. Was there a software side of things I was supposed to update?

Thanks.

If I recall correctly, I had to reflash the EDC module with NCSExpert when I replaced mine.

Try writing a blank .man file to the EDC module with the sg_codieren function.

Thanks.

Haven't done that before so will have to look it up. Do you have any links or steps you can provide for doing this?

You'll need a KDCAN cable, I got mine from bimmergeeks. I had a cheap amazon one, which worked with my E8x, but not my E9x.
The BMW software package is also available from bimmergeeks.
I don't have a step-by-step instruction set, but if you google or search youtube for coding an E90 with NCSExpert, you should get a clear picture for what to do.

Can anyone help me out here?

My edc button is showing the same behavior.

It works with the m button but cannot change settings.

Can change settings by reconfiguring the m button in the menu.

Other two buttons on the panel work fine.

I have not bought a new edc module, just noticed this behavior from the button.
