Hello all. I recently had my timing chain and tensioner replaced at the dealer. My 2007 Mini Cooper S has 72,000 miles. Now the half power Check Engine Light is on above the steering when but there are no warning lights on the center dash display. My code scanner and the one at Advanced Auto do not detect any codes. I was able to get this code by cycling the BC switch: How do I fix this and why wont my scanner pick up the code?
Welcome to M/A the FUN Mini site. This is a specific manufacture code not a generic code. I believe in the M/A library we have a thread with all the codes listed. Yours will be in the 2nd gen section. http://www.motoringalliance.com/library/all-about-mini-coopers-17/ecu-codes-chart---2nd-generation-mini-102/#axzz2cT1bSohN
I may be wrong but I'll try this out anyway. No code because you have a pending code, the reader you have may not be able to see that but you can when cycle the BC Switch (whatever that is). It is, however; saying "Take me to the dealer!", or try a different code reader that offers a deeper layer of reading ability. My research is saying CC-ID 029 is a BMW and therefore MINI specific code. Has something to do with the fuel pump, I think, maybe. MINI extended the fuel pump warranty on 2007 - 2009 cars to 10 Years or 120K miles.
