2008 Mini Service Reset

[@helenbown9763]

Very glad I found this video x The service light was driving me mad. A tip for uk model owners you have to press and hold the mileage button just after start up as the warning shows or it won’t let you into the menu.

And what if what if your Mini Cooper does not have the button on the turn signal switch then what do you do and it don't have the deal I don't have to reset button inside the gauge user got one on the big one but not on the little not on the tachometer and it's a 2003 Mini Cooper the BMW version

Hello I just got a 2008 mini s, What does it mean when there is a yellow key logo on the square screen. Cranks but will not start, has no spark.

[@SuperDanger63]

Probably has a P1570 drive authorization? Try the spare key!

@@SuperDanger63 thanks for the prompt response, it's my first German car at 90k miles and I'm feeling the wrath of the electrical gremlins. Tried both keys, they both turned over the car, no start. Replaced Cam position, and crank position sensors. Still no spark. Checked reluctor ring for bent pins, all good. Going to chase down wires/fuses with a meter into the junction box and pray it's not water damaged.

If you want to attempt to fix it yourself first thing you got to do is scan the car! Harbor freight sell some inexpensive scan tools to pull codes and whatever or order a Bluetooth scanner or whatever off of Amazon but that's where you need to start can't fix a car without having something to go by if it's got cam crank or relation codes which minis are highly known for I don't know what's in this thing N 16 or 18 engine so if it was low on oil the cam tensioner can retract and timing jumps. You'll never get it to start! Plus depending on if it's an s or whatever you might have bent valves?

@@SuperDanger63 just an update, the issue was the JBE, new unit with the same part number and the car is like new. Ty

[@SuperDanger63]

@@GuiltyQuark that's awesome. Congrats on the fix!
