Only the disappointment remains now.

Hey Cuthy mate, how ya goin?! Haha, maybe eventually I'll get some time to eat a porcupine out of a pineapple or something along the lines. I'm doing well, I hope you are too!

@@FoulNews I wait with baited breath! 😂 all good in the hood chief 👌

If the EKPM2 came out of the same model car as yours, there's no need to change anything as the EKPM2 doesn't require coding and should just work as normal. A good thermal for these can be found here: www.newark.com/multicomp-pro/mp008843/thermal-interface-pad-150mmx50mmx0/dp/25AK3594 They're twice the thickness and 25W/m.K. It'll be a bit of a tight fit under the board, but it's possible to squeeze it under there, you'll just need to trim it to size. I'd also recommend adding the active EKP cooling as well, which can be found here: www.arcterminator.com

Thanks! No coding is needed for this install. It's all just plug and play.

Thank you!

@@soilocco No prob!

Hello, yes you can replace an EKPM3 with an EKPM2. Coding is required in order for the pump to behave normally.

tried to code with esys no success maybe try protool or ? thanks@@FoulNewsok has to be same generation and protool is good

Yup, I mentioned this around the 8 min mark. A solid thermal pad of around 17+ w/mk would be a vast improvement. However with an active cooling solution, the EKP always has heat being removed from the case and I didn't find much of a difference between the stock thermal pad and an upgraded one during testing when the fan is on. The voltage fix is another great thing because the factory software greatly lacks efficiency, even for the factory pump.

I don't have an install video just yet, but I do have instructions available here: arcterminator.com/pages/e90-e92-e93-ekp-cooler-install-instructions

@@FoulNews just bought a kit. exactly what I was looking for. Couldn’t find instructions on the site last night. 535 guys are lucky with the fuse box near the battery!

@@dctrklein5975 Awesome, thank you for your support! The same instruction guide will come with your kit. Yes, the 535 is a bit easier to access and install lol.

If it's the exact same part number, then coding may not be required. However, it's strongly recommended to code it to your vehicle to ensure proper flow rates.

Hello, we've got plenty in stock for many different chassis at www.arcterminator.com. If you have any questions as to which kit to go with, let me know and I'll be happy to help :)

Thanks! If you're having EKP-related codes, you can clear them before the active cooling install or right after. If they were related to an overheating condition, they likely won't come back unless the module's half bridge IC needs to be replaced.

So the car stalled on me twice on the side of the road once at high speed in hot weather on the highway, after it cooled for a period of time, I was able to start it up and drive home. Another time it stopped in traffic, but was able to restart right away, so I replaced the fuel pump control module. The original was a second GEN I believe EKPM2 .. replaced it with a EKPM3 .. Then I saw the video of your upgrade cooling device install. I cleared the codes and the EKP code 6294 did not return however I still have a 2AAE fuel pump code. My brief research tells me that could be something more like an O2 sensor or vacuum leak? But sticking with the control module, every since the new module was put in it has been starting really rough and idling rough and sometimes stalling, but immediately restarts if I give a gas at levels out and seems fine, should I consider the upgrade on the original second generation and just keep the third generation as a back up? Or would you put the cooling upgrade on the version on the newer model even though I have the rough idol issues at start?

By the way, thanks for taking the time to help me out with this

And apologies for Siri errors

@@steveroy3216 That definitely sounds EKP-related. The 2AAE code is almost always related to either a failing low pressure fuel pump or the EKP supplying more than 18A. What type of low pressure fuel pump do you have installed now? Also, when you changed over from the EKPM2 to the EKPM3, did you code in the new module to your car?

@@briansabado710 Yes, we have them available for F30's here: arcterminator.com/products/f30-f31-f34-ekp-pnp-cooler-kit-2012-2018-3-series

Hello, our EKP cooler kits are available here: arcterminator.com Let me know if you have any questions!
