61 00... Encode/program control unit(s)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 MINI Cooper Paceman, 2015 MINI Cooper Paceman, 2014 MINI Cooper Paceman, and 2013 MINI Cooper. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Depending on the vehicle and the equipment, the following flat rate unit items are available for programming/encoding:

61 00 710
61 00 720
61 00 730

NOTE:

In order to avoid incorrect programming procedures and fault messages, it is essential when working with the ISTA/P programming system always to use the version.
Battery voltage must not drop below 13.0 V during programming.
Only use chargers recommended by BMW/MINI for low voltage vehicle electrical system.

Attention!

No high-voltage switch off is required in electric vehicles or hybrid vehicles for programming/encoding.

The high-voltage system will be automatically switched off by the programming system.

programming routine via ISTA/P:

Connect the battery charger to the vehicle.
Connect the programming system with the vehicle.
Determine the action plan.
Accept action plan with the control units to be programmed/encoded and enabled, if necessary or work through.
Observe the reworking list!
If applicable, connect the workshop system to the vehicle depending on the rework list, run the brief test and delete the fault memory.
NOTE: A switch to the workshop system may not necessarily be required with the integration of the service functions and the "Delete fault memory" function in ISTA/P. Check the rework list accordingly!
The information about programming the workshop system and the corresponding notes in the user documentation must be observed.
