Bsi Breakdown

[ronjo]

my electric windows, central locking are not working and my hazards are coming on randomly (sometimes flashing, sometimes staying on solid) an auto spark told me my bsi may be failing. how easy is it easy to replace and does anyone any one have an estimate of what this might cost? its a 2004 2.3 petrol automatic. thanks Ronnie

Far more liekly the wires in the door gaitors breaking down - very common. There are loads of threads if you use the search but make a cuppa first :)

bsi? british standards institute? :)

 

Body Systems Interface - VAG's internal name for what's more commonly called the "Comfort Control Module". The galaxy hasn't actually got a CCM/BSI module but it has got a BCM (Body Control Module) which looks after a lot of the core functions of the vehicle and is probably what the chap's refering too.

 

Either way I still think it'll be the wiring :)

thanks for your help......if it turns out to be the BCM, is that something that can be replace by a spare from a scrapyard or does it have to be programmed for the individual vehicle?
