Do you all think it is worth it for me to try the used control module option first as a DIY? FWIW, I checked the battery area where the module is, and it is bone dry...
Your "ex BMW mechanic, so knows his stuff" said the diag points to the actuator, but you want to try the module instead Why don't you ask them if you should change the module?
