The module is the button you're pressing to turn on the heated seat

You'd have to be more specific with the car you have. There's 2 different diagrams. One with and one without gateway. Do you have an E60 or E65

LIN connection goes from center switch cluster (pin 3 to pin 1) then gateway (pin 15) to driverside heating module (pin 3). Location on driver side under seat just past the front cover. Kind of hard to explain
