Hi there,
FEM replacement can be done with Autohex with no problem.

bara002 my skype,
is original fem DEAD?
does your used fem from donor car has key?
so plugg used fem and go for coding and programming and see if ecu is compatible with fem first.
if not compatible than that fem wont work unless you try to flash.
so if used fem has key than use the key to pull isn of fem from bench
and after you write the same isn to dme.
than you will need to do vin change , elv flashing, and other modules.
and everything should work.
but if you dont have working key than you will have to use option 3 on fem/bdc unlock option.and you do rest
after coding the key.
i am not 100% sure if the original key can be re-used but all my original keys i bought i can re-use them.
i did few and all work out well.
but if FEM and DME not compatible the car wont crank after coding the key, but all function of the car will come on.
all the best

There is no problem with the keys, just ignore the NOT BLANK message...I had the same issue with blank keys for F10 868Mhz...Htag showed them NOT BLANK, but anyway I programmed them and everything worked fine, engine start, remote, etc.

I am having same issues, hopefully i will get a reply to message sent to resolve my issue, am i correct in thinking that to replace FEM i need to have original and donor FEM unlocked?

my other option is to use one i have in the garage that is unlocked, i have ISN from the original DME but am unsure if i can program donor FEM with what information i have

thanks

Its not mandatory to have original FEM but if you got it will be better so you can save FA and ISN from it.If don't have original one you must get ISN from DME.
