We repair the module with multiple tools. Here is an example of using CG100. CG100X does the same thing.  vvdi prog reads & write but not repair like CG100 does.  cg100 is absolutely brilliant for BMW FRMs.

This module is corrupt. Open the FRM, take out the circuit board.

Connect FRM module with CG100 using a special FRM clip adapter.
CG also has a special BMW FRM solder-free adapter. Better use their own adapter or just solder wires.
