R55 Clubman S footwell module issues

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. I recently bought a 2009 Mini Clubman s and it has a few electrical issues I'm thinking they might possibly be connected.

The issues are:
-Door locks do not work from remotes.
-Brake lights remain on all the time
-Windows will not go down or up fully when switch is pressed or even when button is held, they will only go in increments of about 2 inches -Window will not return to the closed position when door is closed but will go down when the door is opened.

Thanks in advance everyone, any help is appreciated

With doors closed. open one window at a time and hold the button for 15 sec. then close the window and keep holding for 15 seconds.

as for the remote, make sure the fob battery is good. if so, the receiver antenna is in the rearview mirror. Also, check the fuses.

No matter how long I hold the window switch I only get 2" of movement. I have to cycle the switch for it to go all the way down or up.

​​​​​​I'll check batteries in fobs.

Water is no.1 killer for these.

A reprogramming might solve the issue but might want to consider replacing it.

I do programming and coding for these frms or even testing if you want to send it. Pm me for details.

Update,
I cleaned and dried the module and tried it out. No change. I've been doing some reading and now I have a question. Is it possible to find a module from a car with the same options as mine and not have to have it programmed?
I found a few used ones for sale and I live 3 hours from closest dealer
