Home / Module Recovery / SME Module Recovery
We perform SME module recovery on all BMW i Series vehicles.
The SME (Energy Management Electronics) module is responsible for regulating and coordinating energy flow to the high-voltage lithium-ion battery in BMW i Series vehicles. It also monitors key battery status parameters.
In the event of a collision, the safety system is triggered and three pyrofuses inside the SME module (located within the battery pack) are blown. A CRASH error is recorded in the processor memory. After this, the vehicle becomes inoperable, and a warning message appears on the screen.
Possible solutions:● Purchase a brand-new SME module (approx. €1300), remove the battery, install the new module, and program it to the vehicle. Total cost may reach around $2000.● Remove the battery, take out the SME module, and send it to us for recovery.
Please contact us for preliminary diagnostics before removing the battery.
What we do:● Perform software recovery of the SME module.● Replace all pyrofuses with new ones (detailed video available on our YouTube channel).● Send the restored module back to you.● Include an additional pyrofuse installed at the front of the battery — we ship it along with your module.● After the battery is reinstalled in the vehicle, we connect remotely to pair the SME module and perform a final check.
What you get:● A fully restored SME module with new pyrofuses, functionally identical to a new unit.● Significant cost savings.● Supported BMW models:
● i4 (G26)● iX1 (U11)● iX3 (G08)● iX (I20)● i5 (G60)● XM (G09)
