Question Advice Wanted for MTH upgrade and ECU Reset Problem

Hi guys,

This morning I have uploaded my MTH Tuner file and done the ECU reset using the speedo method advised by other Mini2ers (steps detailed at the foot of the message).

All worked fine, the car restarted, the windows and everything worked OK, until I tried the Air Con - The Air Con no longer functions, when I press the button the light comes on but the air is not cooled .

I've read of other people who have reset the ECU and had initial issues with windows, etc on their first drive but these have always fixed themselves. This does not appear to be the case with my Air Con, have been out in the car several times and still no Air Con

I uploaded my original MTH file to set the car back to standard, but still no Air Con So I guess it must have something to do with the Speedo ECU reset.

Does anyone have any advice? It looks like I'll be grovelling to my local Mini Service department on Tuesday morning.



1) With the key in the off position press and hold the speedo reset button, turn the key to position one and the screen will say test and a number.

2) Go through the list by pressing the reset button upto test 19 and then wait.

3) The display should then say"log i-off" then "log i-on" over and over again....when "log i- off" appears again press the reset button ....and now you are in the system software.

4) Scroll upto 21.0 Software reset. When reset appears press the button again and you will get a beep and you're speedo needle may vibrate a little (this is normal).

5) Turn ignition off then back on to position 2 for 10 secs then start your car and hey presto its done.




This clears out all the information about your driving style etc, driving the car hard after doing this reloads the ecu memory with a hard driving style which ensures that throttle response etc remains sharp and helps the map to evolve to its best potential
