Description
Part number 8378632, UTA supplier reference 601-0728-012 — genuine BMW Body Comfort Control Module for the E38 7 Series and E39 5 Series, sold as a used and tested unit suitable for direct OEM replacement.
This module ties together the body comfort electronics shared across the E38 and E39 platforms: central locking across all doors and the boot, one-touch window automation and the remote comfort-close function, interior and courtesy light scheduling at door events, and boot interior illumination. Optional equipment on these models — heated seats and electric folding mirrors — is also controlled via this unit.
Failure tends to present as a loss of remote central locking, windows that no longer travel automatically on a single switch press, interior lighting that stays dark when doors open, the comfort-close feature stopping mid-cycle or not initiating, and the boot lid uncoupling from the central locking system.
Cross-reference OEM 8378632 and code 601-0728-012 with your build record before ordering. BMW ISTA coding is essential after installation. Professional fitting is advised, and 14-day returns apply.
Returns accepted only for genuine faults — faulty on arrival, not as described, or wrong part supplied — requested within 14 days, with all 3 anti-tamper stickers intact. No returns for change of mind, incorrect installation, coding/programming, or buyer compatibility errors; checking compatibility (OEM number, firmware, vehicle) is the buyer’s responsibility.
