How to find the engine code on a Mini Cooper?
Press and release the button until the code number is your total from above. (in my case 29) Hold the button for 3 seconds, and the bottom display should clear, and the top display should go back to 19.__. Now you are ready to cycle through the numbers in the top display, from 01.__ to 21.__.
