Will This Fix My Problem?
Honest answer: here's exactly what this service fixes — and what it doesn't.
Fixes:
- ✓MINI windows and lights dead — FRM3 fault
- ✓MINI won't start, CAS / immobilizer failure
- ✓Replaced a MINI module and need it coded to the car
- ✓Water-damaged MINI footwell or CAS module
- ✓Need a MINI DME clone after engine ECU failure
Won't fix:
- ✗Mechanical ignition or door-lock wear
- ✗Blown bulbs / wiring faults outside the FRM
- ✗Engine mechanical no-start unrelated to DME/immobilizer
- ✗Very early R50 carry-over edge cases (ask first)
