This video shows the location of the fuse box on the Mini R56: on the left side of the engine bay, you will find the first box, right next to the ECU unit, and just behind this, there is another small box with relays. Inside the cabin, on the right side, in the passenger footwell, there is a small panel on the outer side; by opening it, you can find a number of fuses, most of which are dedicated to the internal functions of the vehicle.

The OBD port is located on the driver's side, on the lower left side of the steering wheel, behind a small square panel.
