20 Most Recent 2008 Mini Cooper S - Page 2 Questions & Answers

Many people have trouble starting the mini. Once my girlfriend almost missed her flight because she couldn't get the rental started. That being said, here are some easy fixes: 1. Make sure your foot is on the break when you try to start it. The car won't start without foot on the break. 2. Replace your battery: batteries don't work well in cold weather, old batteries work worse. Try jump staring your car, and/or call AAA or someone to come replace your battery. They are pretty cheap, and the toe truck guy will replace if for you. 3. Other than that, ask a pro?

Get a code reader and read the ecu (Engine computer unit). If codes pop up, that's what will need fixing...

Are the connectors actually wired the same? Check the wiring diagrams for each seat if you can find them, otherwise trace the wiring from the internal components in the seat to the connector and make sure the heaters are going to heater power pins in the original harness, and temperature sensors are going to temperature sensor pins (temperature sensors may be polarized, that is, it makes a difference which pin goes to positive and which to ground).

To be sure you need to hook up a scanner and read the code when you see the light on. It's not unusual for Mini's to do this for a couple of usual reasons. One is due to the Oxygen sensor getting a short term reading that is out of the norm causing the light to come on. Various things can cause this including Injectors, mechanical condition, o-rings, even fuel changes from one station to another can trigger this on cars. It goes off later because it's a temporary issue and the car adjusts itself after so many starts. One other reason is the fuel cap not being tightened properly, that usually is fixed when you refuel and retighten the cap properly or just tighten the cap.

Check all fuses. Inspect all the wiring you can see. If a mouse chewed them up, maybe it could cause this?If that doesn't fix it, sounds like you have a defect in the circuit board in the Instrument panel display.
