This problem has just happened to my wife's 2015 Mini One - the left hand rear lights stopped working and when I checked the connector it smelt of burning, was very hot and some of the plastic had melted. I got a new connector repair kit from Mini (ÂŁ13) and a new lamp holder/circuit board (ÂŁ30) and a local Mini specialist fitted it (ÂŁ48) so in total it cost ÂŁ91 to repair. The main dealer quoted ÂŁ120 for the labour alone.
