How to register the key on a Mini R53 version

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

In this video we see how to register the key of a Mini R53: the receiver is located under the mirror, and to register it you have to insert it in the ignition and turn it in order to turn on the car but not start the engine. Now remove the key and holding it under the central rearview mirror, within ten seconds press the lock button and then the unlock button three times. We will see that the car locks and unlocks. This way the key is registered. We can do the same with the second key, always repeating the same sequence under the internal rearview mirror.
