The document discusses the different part numbers and module groups for BMW GM3 modules used across various 5, 7, and X5 series models from the 1990s to 2000s. It provides replacement part numbers for each module type.

There are 7 main groups mentioned - Group 1 through Group 7, as well as some modules of unknown group. The groups vary based on the BMW model and year.

Group 1 is for E39 5-series 1995-2004, E38 7-series 1994-2001, and E53 X5 2000-2006. Groups 2 through 7 are assigned to specific BMW models and years within the E38, E39, and E53 ranges.

BMW General Module 3 (aka GM3, GMIII,

ZKE3)
Last updated October 19, 2014

The BMW GM III is used on several cars such as the E39 5-series 1995-2004, E38 7-
series 1994-2001 and the E53 X5 2000-2006 series.

The GM III were made under a variety of part numbers including the following. I
have grouped them together with the current replacement part number last. There are
many that I have not figured out what group they belong to. Most of the time I can fix
the GM3 module (GM3 repair), but, there are some GM3 problems I can fix and there
are some that I can't. If it's a problem I can't fix then your best bet is to replace it with
a new module. GM replacement instructions -> Replace GM
