How do you set the clock in the 2011 Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini R56, R57, R55 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Clock

For some settings, fortunately, we can access them independently, without having to turn to authorized service centers for certain problems. This is the case of the clock of the 2011 Mini Cooper, which needs to be adjusted, for example, when changing from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa, or when reset after replacing the car's power battery, etc. Here's what to do: with the instrument panel on, press the Home, Settings, Time And Date buttons, and from there it's easy, we will adjust the Hours, Minutes, and even select the display format of the aforementioned time and the time zone.

The resistor is located right behind the center console, but you can access it by removing the trim panel directly below the steering column and then detaching the side cover of the tunnel. At this point, you can easily reach the resistor and its power connector; just pull it out of its housing to replace it.
