[2000 525i] Trying to get the ABS module replaced but the dealer is asking for a part number I do not have

I sent away the ABS control module to someone who said it was not repairable. Now when I try to get a replacement, they have the picture of the sticker on it but say they need a part number beginning with 61.35xx (where x is not known).

I do not have this number and I cannot find it does anyone know where it is?

Slightly confused with installing/using the K+DCAN cable

I've installed the BMW INPA/ISTA software from the download and connected the cable. It says it's on COM port 3.

So, does that mean I modify the relevant .ini file to port 3 and its done? The Rheingold instructions say port 9. I only just read some threads with people mentioning connection problems.

I seem to have the common ABS module fault - but does it often involve the gearbox going onto limp mode?

I have the ASC/ABS warning and changing the wheel sensor doesn't help. So, it looks liket the old ABS module drama.

But I'm getting an intermittent warning with the gearbox being in FAILSAFE mode. The cars drives normally with the ABS and ASC lights on but the gearbox issue is random. It's happened three times now.

Are they likely to be related?
