Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation




Instrument cluster MINI
The display instruments in the MINI consist of the central instrument cluster and the additional instruments available as optional extras.

Central instrument cluster
The central instrument cluster contains the logic for all displays and indicator lamps. The control module has diagnostic functions. As of software 15, a fault memory is implemented.

Additional instruments
The optional additional instruments are linked by a separate CAN bus with the central instrument cluster. The instruments are only able to display values from the central instrument cluster. The control module has only identification as a diagnostic function.

In the different markets, the display functions between the central instrument cluster and the additional instruments can vary.

Manipulation point
The instrument cluster of the MINI has no manipulation point.

After replacing the instrument cluster, do not forget coding and import of the data!
