I don't even know what some of these ECUs are (probably best not to play with them). Here is my understanding based on web searches.
  • AAG = Control unit for trailer hitch
  • AMPT = Audio amplifier
  • ASD = Audio Sound Design
  • ATM = GPS telematic control module
  • EGS = Transmission control module (?)
  • EPS3 = Electric power steering
  • KAFAS4 = Camera Assisted Driver Assistance System
  • LMV2 = Transfer case module (?)
  • RS = ???
  • SAS2 = Steering angle sensor
  • ZBE4 = iDrive controller
ACSM - can do other things like disable or adjust welcome gongs. Turn off seat belt tensioners, cameras at all speeds, etc.

Yes, EGS is transmission.

SAS - where driver assist functions are located. So, you can adjust default ACC+ distance, etc.

Definitely want to be careful playing with DSC.

Then there is FLM and USS--I don't know what those are. Finally, there is SM (seat memory). The driver's seat in my car does everything I need it to do (i.e., adjust depending on who is driving the car), so I have no reason to code anything there. What do you guys think? Are any of the ECU's useful? I've attached the list of coding options for each ECU. Getting the alphabetical list is easy; getting the rest of the information is the time consuming manual part.
FLM is the Front Light Module (ie headlights)

SM: Easy entry, adjust temperature or cooling.
Hey Almaretto, are you able to provide more info about the SM and easy entry?

It would be great if you could!
