Having repaired several BMWs, it's indeed common to encounter footwell module failures after a power loss. Typically, power loss causes the module to lose power, leading to data loss or setting errors. When handling this, I first check if the module's wiring connections are loose or corroded, as BMW's electronic systems are quite sensitive. If the connections are fine, I use a diagnostic computer to read the fault codes. Most of the time, simply reprogramming or initializing the module resolves the issue. However, if the module is internally damaged, it might need a complete replacement, which can be quite costly. It's advisable to back up data before any power loss to avoid similar issues. Regular maintenance checks on the module's condition can help prevent unexpected failures. Seeking help from a professional repair shop is the safest option, as they have specialized tools and experience to handle such cases.
