How to reset and learn the Mini Cooper's convertible top

Model: Mini Mini R56, R55, R57 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Checks and maintenance

Today's main instructions will show us how to reset and learn the mechanism of the Mini Cooper's convertible top. To perform the learning, you will need to use a specific software to connect to the vehicle's OBD port (in this case, the DNA tool is used); the diagnostic software will then communicate with the control unit, where you can reset and self-learn thanks to its dedicated function. To disconnect the tool, turn off the instrument panel and then verify the correct operation of the convertible top mechanism!
