Hey guys! Hoping someone can help, I've recently picked up a problem with my e86 gearbox, driving normally the car works perfectly fine no issues I can pick up on until I want to shift into manual mode or use the paddles to change the gears, it just ignores the input, in the dash it switched into manual mode eg: M5 (this just shows the current gear selection) but will not change on command. (The only time it does seem to work is when I'm doing over or around 65mph on the motorway)

I have looked into this for over a week now and found a couple of posts on various sites that link it back to the radiator fan not working or having a blown fuse so I have changed the fan and traced back to the 60amp fuse that feeds the fan and it all seems to be in working order and this is where I'm now stuck.

Does it work when you are in manual mode and push the gear lever backwards and forwards ?
 
No, that doesn't work either, when you push the gear lever into manual it seems to register its in manual but won't change
