How to access the secret menu of a Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini R50, R52, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Dashboard

In this video we will see how to access the Mini Cooper secret menu. First we turn the ignition key until we have the screen with the kilometers. Press and hold the button next to the odometer: at this point we will see the number of kilometers reset and then a specific message â € œtestâ € that brings us to the menu that interests us. From here, leaving the button, we will see a number appear every time we press the same button. What interests us is the number 19, from which, by pressing again, we access the secret menu. Once inside, scrolling through the various numbers, you will be able to access various contents, such as the temperature of the coolant.
