What we do
Services
BMW ECU repair, FRM3 Footwell Module repair, and X5/X6 EMF handbrake repair — we repair before we replace, keeping your costs low and your customer’s car correct.
Component-level board repair
We go beyond module swap — fault finding and repair at component level, including failed drivers, capacitors, and power stages. Lowest possible cost to your customer.
Core capability
FRM Footwell & EMF Handbrake
FRM3 Footwell Module repair and EMF handbrake repair — including X5 handbrake modules — are among our highest-volume services. Fast turnaround and guaranteed refurbishment, tested in our lab before release.
ECU repair & replacement
Correct VIN, correct mileage, correct software version. We do not advocate locksets — your customer’s car leaves with the right module, not a workaround.
Module coding & adaptation
All modules are re-coded to the vehicle using factory BMW tools. Correct operation, no random dash faults, full service indicator functionality.
Advanced diagnostics
Factory BMW diagnostic equipment — not generic third-party tools. Full fault granularity to correctly identify root cause before repair or replacement.
Refurbished module supply
Fast-moving modules held in stock as tested refurbished units. Immediate availability for common configurations — minimising vehicle downtime.
Workshop partners
How it works
We work directly with workshops — not around them.
01
Contact us with the fault
Call or email with vehicle details and the faulty module. We’ll confirm availability and turnaround time upfront.
02
Send or drop off the module
Local customers can drop in. Remote customers courier the module to us — we work with customers from across South Africa this way.
03
Receive a working module
Back to you within 48 hours as standard. Common modules often same day. Correctly coded, tested, and ready to fit.
04
Correctly coded, first time
Every module leaves matched to the vehicle — correct VIN, mileage, and software. No adaptations, no dash warnings, no comebacks.
The lab
About OBDWorx

OBDWorx is a specialist BMW electronic module repair facility based in Benoni, Gauteng. We focus exclusively on BMW electronics — component-level ECU repair, FRM3 Footwell Module repair, EMF handbrake repair, refurbishment, and coding — using the same factory tools BMW uses. We support E-series and F-series platforms.

We prefer to repair before replacing. It keeps costs lower for your customer, and avoids the complications that come with incorrectly coded or mismatched modules. When replacement is necessary, we source and code correctly — right VIN, right mileage, right software.

Based in Benoni, Gauteng, we serve workshops and trade partners across South Africa. Our lab is continuously updated to keep pace with the expanding range of BMW electronic systems we support.
