Removing the Onboard Computer on a Mini

Model: Mini Mini F56, F54, F57, F55 - Years: 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023
Part: Onboard computer

Video tutorial

Detach the round frame of the onboard computer by slightly rotating it counterclockwise and then pulling it off by hand, as clearly shown in the video. This will give you access to the two T20 Torx screws located beneath the screen: unscrew them.

Now, using a plastic wedge, remove the upper panel from the dashboard, thereby freeing access to the back of the computer. Insert a medium-sized flat screwdriver into this access and pry until the screen pops out of its housing.

Disconnect the connectors and you're done. Proceed in reverse until fully reassembled.
