How to reset the electric windows on a Mini R50.

Model: Mini Mini R52, R50, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Warning light – error code

In this video, we see how to reset the power windows on a Mini R50: it may be necessary to do this if for any reason we have disconnected the battery and the windows - which do not have side pillars - do not allow the glass to move up and down while opening or closing the doors. The glass does not seal properly, so it is important to set the correct upper and lower stopping points. We turn on the ignition, and with both windows closed, we press both power window switches for a couple of seconds, and then let go. This way, the correct stopping point is restored.

How to Install Roof Bars on a Fiat 500L

Learn how to fit universal roof bars on a Fiat 500L. These bars are used on vehicles with or without roof rails. Assemble the roof bar kit (as shown in the video) with bars adjusted to the width of the vehicle (measure with a tape measure). Position the brackets at both ends of the doors on the vehicle's original roof rails. Once the anchoring bracket width is set, tighten the bolts with a butterfly nut (if a lock is present) until fully secured to the roof rails. Fit safety caps on both sides.
